Got an update for Ford Sync.....I'll just say doing a fastboot installation of an Android update is nicer...

But now it actually displays Title & Artist when you are playing from your phone. And it will automatically resume bluetooth playback when you start the car if that's what you were listening to when you last shut it off. Previously, you could listen to bluetooth, park your car, and then when you would get in again, it would default to USB or line-in.

The 60s was amazing IMO as far as the way rock was evolving and the whole singer/song writer scene .I mean thats the decade that gave us The Doors, Hendrix, The Who, Floyd, The Stones just to name a few...then we gave way to the disco era in the 70s but serious music was still around.
The 80s comes along and it was glam, hair metal, death metal, thrash, punk, pop and the beginning of commercially popular hiphop.
The 90s gave us grunge Nirvana, Sound Garden,(Chris Cornell one of the best voices in rock imo) the birth of industrial with Nine Inch Nails, White Zombie, Powerman 5000 etc and hip-hop was permanently cemented in our culture . The new 21st century gave us screamo, Mylie Cyrus, Bruno Mars and Justin Beiber and a 100 singing competition TV shows ...
We're devolving musically I think.
Are there some amazing singers and bands today? Absolutely but its not what it used to be.

Music is definitely devolving, it has been since the birth of disco. Are there talented individuals in today's music world? Sure there are. However, for the most part; image, marketing and showboating masquerade as talent for modern days plastic culture. Music has indeed seen its hay day. There seems to be little passion left for today's stars. Are there still well written songs? Yes. Will any of them ever be as good as 2112? No! I truly weep for the passing of raw unbridled talent. Society is left with a sorry state on the music front. Hip hop as sucked the very marrow of life from music. Turned what was once vibrant and beautiful, into a dreadful, souless abyss.

Just go to Jamendo.com or Magnatune.com - just because the real musicians got off of the commercial train doesn't mean that music died.

When I drove my Chevy to the levee the water was just fine.

Of course, that was before the hurricane. But definitely not dry then either.

I've never driven a Chevy to a levee, and not likely to either. But I do sometimes drink whisky and rye.

 

[EarlyMon]

If the ocean were whisky,
And I were a duck,
I'd swim to the bottom,
And drink my way up.

Rye whisky, rye whisky,
Rye whisky, I cried...

I hate indecision.....I've been planning on waiting for the next Nexus device....but it's so tempting to just go ahead and buy an N6 instead while it's on sale..... decisions decisions decisions. >.<

It's interesting that some people say something is "bad" because they didn't like it. As if their opinion is the one that decides if something is good or bad. For example, saying a certain kind of music is bad, or a certain movie, etc. It's like they didn't get the memo that everyone has their own idea of what's good or bad, to them.

Just thought I'd mention that I just recently switched to the Nexus 6, and so far I really love it. Great screen and great stereo speakers. Also it is really responsive and snapper than the HTC M8 that I had before.

Personally I say, go for it!

 

[wyndslash]

Read rumors that Hwawei is going to manufacture the next Nexus phone. If that's true, I don't know how I feel about that.

Supposedly there's an LG too...which is odd. I guess we'll see. Would be an unprecedented thing to have a dual Nexus release. (Personally I hope the LG is a N5 refresh.)
