Through my Naim DAC.

 

Its lucky i like it.

What does your computer tell you?

 What album have played the most this year?

My computer is too far away from the CD player to see what I put in, but in 1982, or 3, I decided to keep a book by the record deck and note each album I played. Despite being such a 70's music fan, Yes Led Zeppelin and the rest, it was Japan 'Tin Drum' that was most played.

 

Stu, I thought you were a vinyl player?

Hi JamieL_v2 -

 

Picked up a copy of Japan's compilation Exorcising Ghosts (Virgin France #60030) about six months back, and enjoyed it thoroughly.  Only noticed much later that Richard Barbieri of Porcupine Tree was their keyboard player.   I missed out on a lot of 80's music, as I was stuck in the late 60's until the mid 90's.

 

Using N-Stream for digital playback these days.  Stats like "number of plays" would be a welcome enhancement!

This, a ridiculous number of times, and not just this year.

According to itunes

 

 

 

I think mainly because I listen to up tempo stuff when running. And of course I don't use Itunes to listen to music anymore other than through ipod. As mentioned before it would be nice for N stream to somehow remember plays, but I suspect that might be quite difficult to implement

Jamie,

I still play a hell of alot of CDs /Music DVDs and downloads through the Naim DAC. 

Vinyl is my fave format, but everything is not available on vinyl.

Guido Fawkes, I received Basia Bulat this week - what a beautiful voice, music and recording quality.  I have her other album coming on vinyl so am also looking forward to that.

 

Regards

Don't have the foggiest which is my most played disc this year. Though it is probably a jazz disc.
