I ❤️ HomePod Mini
Our kids need music to fall asleep. Our oldest daughter loves listening to theme park tunes before closing her eyes (she’s a massive fan of De Efteling). Before, this meant waiting besides her bed, with the music playing on your phone, until she finally dozes off. There were two

Dolby Atmos op Apple Music
Ik ben één van die tien Apple Music gebruikers in België. Vooral om historische redenen: ik hou al sinds m’n eerste iPod al m’n muziek netjes bij in iTunes, en toen Spotify er kwam hadden zij een limiet van 10.000 songs. Een paar keer te klein voor
