As expected, Neil Young’s Pono Player is already creating a huge buzz online after his launch announcement. Music lovers are already excited about it ’cause his kickstarter service already reached his goal in 1 day which is no surprise.

I think this is a good enough sign that Pono Music is gonna be HUGE in the future. The Pono player maybe a bit pricey for now but I’m sure Neil will bring down the price some when ever it starts selling real good. I think there’s a good chance that a lot of people will be curious about this so they will buy the Pono player and once they discover they love it… they’ll ditch Itunes and go to Pono instead. Yep, Pono is the future of digital music.

I wonder what music would sound like from the original master recording of albums? I’m sure it will have a louder and clearer sound, though. That’s the goal with Pono… to listen to the original recording of the album that was recorded in the studio. The major labels will have to send the original master recordings of albums to Pono.

Neil still listens to music the old school way. He prefers to listen to music on vinyl. Maybe that’s what the Pono player will sound like a little bit? He prefers to record his own music in the studio the old way as well ’cause he records all of his albums on analog only.

Neil looks at things differently than we all do. He’s an honest guy and I like what he’s doing here.
