This morning, I've got to haul a few loads of grain to our neighbor across the county. It's a 45 minute drive, so I pull out my phone before hitting the road, to get it connected to the cab radio. I open up Symfonium, which has downloaded music from the community server. It's by no means an exhaustive library. It has some classics - Bach, Beethoven, and other recordings (which were public domain). My neighbor Jim ripped a bunch of CDs and put the mp3 files on there - he's pretty into Dave Brubeck. But a large swath of what's on here is stuff that our community has recorded themselves. A few things are files that have migrated over from community to community, too (I'm personally quite fond of the Appalachian Orthodox recordings that have made it onto here). I notice that the Hutchinson kids' album of Gregorian chant that they recorded last month is on the server now (my neighbor Bill is one of the admins, he and a few other folks are the only ones that can approve additions to the library). I tap on it to stream it.
