When I get to it....


Now to the thread question... listening to Aural Moon...

17" Powerbook with iTunes. Aural Moon is then streamed to an Air Port Express which is connected to a Bose Companion 3 sound system. Therefore, I am free to roam about without ever losing sound.

On the road, I listen to Aural Moon with my Powerbook and iTunes. I have a Sprint EVDO card which gives me internet access (via cell phone mobile network) anywhere I go. I have a piece of software called InsomniaX which, when activated, allows me to close the Powerbook without it going to sleep. Once tuned in, I can safely store the Powerbook away.

FWIW, about 9 out of every 10 Aural Moon listeners uses iTunes.

That's a high percentage on itunes, vax. I had no idea.

Like kw, we use Windows XP but have VLC Media Player.

At work, Windows XP and WinAmp
