Introduction: Have obscure equipment? I might be able to help troubleshoot
« on: 18 Apr 2022, 01:49 am »
I've been around the audio and video world waaaaaay too long.  Think vacuum tube TVs and tape decks of the late 60s.  Have fixed tube, discrete solid state, IC, pretty much every generation of analog gear...but never the fancy stuff (think "always less than $1000, whatever it was")
So I have lots of obsolete skills, and am not trying to sell anything.

I've heard rumors that Apple is planning to EOL iTunes on a PC.  because my wife insists on "easy to use" -- what is the easiest to use music file manager for the PC?

I've got about 15,000 files...itunes works fine, but not if it is killed off by Apple.

    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

I have an SDPIF/USB convertor that I loved but died and the builder is not in business anymore.

As soon as I can get it open (stripped screws) I'll send you some pictures.
Thanks for posting.
