I am tired of most of my albums, but I have once again hit a point where there are no websites or magazines I find I can turn to to recommend a nice steady flow of just a few to try listening to per month.
Instead I look and find a hundred listening recommendations, making my eyes glaze over and instead not buy or download any of them.

Or I go seek out and then listen once or twice before forgetting about the new acquisition and it disappears in the noise of a large existing collection, making me begin to wonder if after all a “rent it for a week” service with iPod support might not be a great idea when I don’t care to listen to most of my collection more than a few times.  Internet radio remains damningly repetitive and bland.
