Time for the annual "best of" blog post, and this year was packed full of more great music than I can ever remember.
I flirted with buying my music only online this year, but have since switched back to CDs, so that I can rip everything in lossless. Automatic downconversion to the phone is great, and I can still keep my lossless audio streams for the house, and all it costs is disk space (for my complete music collection, that's roughly 1TB). This is also the year I dumped my Zune Pass, and tried (but failed to be captivated by) Spotify.
