I am not sure that can be done. For some devices, the free backups only apply to “Storage saver” quality, which means decreasing resolution and quality, which obviously couldn’t be done here.
Secondly, there is some file size limit. I think 50MB/image, but you could split the files, if it worked in the first place.
Basically just anything I can while waiting for time to pass. I can’t get deeper into something, because there’s not enough time. Usually that ends up being walking back and forth and thinking, having a fake conversation in my head.
like when sitting in the train
I don’t consider that idle time, but a fun activity. I often take a train or bus nowhere. That means, as far as I can go and back. Or try to make my commute as long as possible. For example, I found nice connections allowing me to extend my commute from school from just 18km to 133km, and it’s only €0.90 more expensive.
I don’t download full albums, just individual songs I like.
The sources are basically anywhere I hear music, but generally, it’s by listening to radio.
As of now, this has already got me to 1,179 songs with 3 in queue to be downloaded. (If you’re curious, those in queue are: Dana International - Diva; New Kids On The Block - Step By Step; Prince - Purple rain)
It is hard to call it discovery in this case, more like a reminder of the songs since I knew them already.
Other sources include, but are not limited to: Browsing YouTube playlists, searching for artists to see if they have more good songs, buying a CD compilation, searching for someone’s Spotify playlist after peeking into their phone when I liked multiple songs (they didn’t want to share the playlist, but left it “public”), Bus Simulator Ultimate (there I discovered 2 artists, Melihcan and Cem Kılıç), old tapes, bus driver with a Bluetooth speaker (and me with Shazam), parts of songs randomly appearing in my head from who knows where, background music in videos.
