30 years ago, it was still taught that we Belgians went to the Congo out of benevolence, to help lift up the people there. Not one mention of rubber quota or chopped off hands. Fuck that indoctrination.
hmmm tips, not sure. You have beets already, that's the main tip :)
I have it reformatting filenames, storing it in the proper paths, retrieve albumart, and that's about it I reckon. In case I forgot anyting, I'll update this message when home.
As for unrecognized albums... That's tough, I have a bunch of them too. I weighed storing them in the regular folders versus in a separate unrecognized/ folder. Went with the latter approach. I rescan that folder every month, sometimes new matches appear. That unrecognized folder is also shared to navidrome, so except for some missing album art and perhaps improper file/song names, not really an issue.
Buy digitally and store, yes agreed. But then I wonder, how long will that last until the major platforms remove the option to download? Then what'll I do?
How do you rate Blood Meridian against The Road? The Road is easily in my top 5, but could not get into other McCarthy books. I might give Blood Meridian a try.
They kept silent about his palaces of course 🙃
