I bought BB and Stevie Ray for $20 (2 for $20) at HMV (in Canada).

To further blather now that I've listened to the full album, Tegan and Sara have made some beautiful music on The Con. I really love so many moments in it. The bonus DVD in the special edition is also pretty cool. I like it more than their concert DVD, really (bad audio on their concert DVD, unfortunately). They really seemed to push themselves with this album, and they did have more creative freedom over how it was made. I just tried a couple of tracks on my main system, and it holds up well. During the day, I'll play it much louder. Anyway, I like it. I'm really glad it turned out so well.

Another vote for the awesome performance and stunning fidelity of the BB King DVD. It is fantastic.

Also nothing.
My hard drive on PC crashed so Squeezebox is borked. Music is safely backed up on an external drive though so all is not lost. Loading a CD in a drive seems so barbaric now.......

Good thing you had a backup! I do the same thing after having learned my lesson the hard way. I had ~1,300 CDs ripped to .flac, about a six month project I undertook in 2004. A year later my HDD bit the dust and I lost everything. I've now gone RAID plus I have an external backup to boot. I'm still only through about 1/3 of my collection this second time around. Anyone care to do the grunt work for me?

Which version Squeezebox do you own? I have a v3 and have enjoyed it overall. I'm not the biggest fan of the software, but the benefit of it being web based has been a big boon for me. It's nice sitting on my couch with the laptop queuing up mixes. That kind of thing just baffles the tech averse crowd.

I agree about feeling barbaric when switching discs out...

Just finished listening to BBC Proms program 29 and after a rather uninteresting but thankfully brief new work which opened the concert there was an adequate Prokofiev Piano Concerto and a surprisingly fine Shostakovich 7th Symphony done by their "National Youth Orchestra"(ages 13-19). Think I'll rewind and listen to the symphony a second time.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
