does advertising work for you?

Oh - I don't get noisy ones! That would be annoying. I wonder why some get those and others don't?

Because of the daft sites we go on! Spotify is dreadful, but I do love being able to create my own radio station. You can choose your favourite types of music, save and 'like' them, and from the zillions of pieces of music they have stored they will play you similar pieces. The downside is that every 8 or 10 pieces, you will get an advert. The upside is being introduced to thousands of new pieces of music that you like.

Ah! That's why I don't get the noisy ones then, the sites I visit are too staid (thank goodness).

I blame my son. He feels that I need educating. I give in, because we need to have common ground. We are getting to the stage where I need a dictionary just for all the new technology he talks about and sites that he recommends. They are brilliant, but everything comes at a price.

Youtube used to be the place for classical music recordings that you could listen to for free, now they are on spotify because they pay the fee to cover copywrite, that in return is paid for by adverts. Not just classical, obviously. But the library of music available is amazing. They reckon that only 40% of it has been touched upon by the public.
