The announcement of Apple getting to be in the streaming music business is soon going to be a reality. Buying music from iTunes as music downloads as being there main business for a number of years. Apple Music is the streaming product that marks their expansion to the music industry. A number of others such as Spotify, Google Play Music All Access and Tidal are ready for subscription at present. Apple Music according to the Apple website are promising a trial subscription for three months. I recently switched from using the iPhone to an Android. My newest phone is the Samsung Galaxy S5. I am still an user of iTunes. After reading the advertisement, I do feel that I should give Apple Music a try when it is released. I am currently a paid subscriber to Spotify. It is interesting where my subscription payments will go in the future. I do hope Apple Music will give the music industry a shot in the arm that it really deserves.

Coming back to the world of blogging

Peter G blogging ,

It has being a long time since I have posted on Petesmusic’s Blog. Hello to all interested parties that want to read this. I have being quite doing my other project which I ended called The Indie Aspie & have being studying at one Australian technical college. I did happen to acquire a Certificate II in Information, Digital Media & Technology at TAFE NSW. TAFE NSW is a tertiary institution in the state of New South Wales in a country called Australia. This is the start of the new chapter and hope to provide interesting material down the line.

My First Adelaide Holiday

Peter G Travel , , , ,

I spent the last days of September 2012 & the first day of October 2012 on holidays in Adelaide, Australia. I hail from Sydney, Australia. I have being to big cities in Europe & the United States. This was a good chance to see more of Australia. It is spring time here in Australia. It was going to be warmer than the southern winter. I was proved wrong to be very winter like. I went there with my winter luggage by observing the forecasts on the internet. I stayed at the Hilton Adelaide. It was located in Victoria Square close by at a light rail stop. There is only one light rail line in Adelaide from the Adelaide Entertainment Centre to Glenelg. I did spend majority of time in the city centre. I went to Rundle Mall, Adelaide Casino, Art Gallery of South Australia & the State Library of South Australia. These are famous Adelaide landmarks. I went to the bayside suburb of Glenelg. It was too cold for a swim. I took some photos on this occasion. I am usually too shy to do so. I had a good time on my first Adelaide holiday.

Sydney, Australia was where CEBIT 2012 from May 22-24. The Convention & Exhibition Centre in Darling Harbour was where the action is. Anything related to IT for sale to industry people was the intention. Organisations from across the universe selling their wares. The latest laptops, cloud servers, using social media, IT trends, PC software, smartphone apps & IT systems just to give you an idea of some topics with information provided in this expo. I did some research on courses related to IT. I asked a couple of places but were for more training for existing IT employees. I am planning to study from scratch. A shame that TAFE NSW did not have a stand. I know that Sydney University & University of Technology, Sydney had a presence there. I am not keen to go to an university. I did spend a couple of hours watching what was offered at the time I was there. I did have a good time going to quite a few Sydney CEBIT’s.

The adventures of a new laptop

Peter G computers, laptop , , , , , , ,

I have now joined the club of users who decided to use a laptop. Previously was a desktop user. The many cords, adapter & plugs all tangled like a spaghetti junction. So many speakers that would have being a good use if I was a dedicated gamer. The seperation of the keyboard, mouse & monitor with the tower of many electrical slots. It is that I wasn’t given an honourary IT certificate keeping track of these connections. The internet was provided initially by my internet service provider. I had two services by an IT repair firm fixing the faults of the desktop. Last week, I started using my laptop. I have a wireless connection with a router. I can bring the laptop away from my computer desk. I have a new printer with a wireless connection. I am new to this. I have a lot to learn here. It is a PC. It is in the mid-range. I have found using Windows 7 a breeze to use to date. It is my first week using the equipment I have now. I do have two speakers that work very well. The purchase was made at an Australian electrical chain with installation by the same chain. Quite unusual for the home user. This is my first blog on this new laptop. I do hope it is the first of many.
