Longtime readers of this column will recall that, back in October/November 2020, I discussed the many benefits of nugs.net, a top-shelf streaming site offering multiple-thousands of soundboard-quality streams and downloads from a horde of name artists. I admired how nugs.net had been able to bring live-show listening (and viewing!) into the hi-res arena where it rightly belongs. Don't get me wrong-I love my bootleg collection to no end, but if I can a) get better-SQ versions of live gigs that are directly artist-approved, and b) obtain them in such a way that benefits those artists more directly financially, even better. And that's where nugs.net shines like practically no other site can.
Since that 2020 column, I've continued enjoying the scope of nugs.net offerings whenever I can-perhaps even more exponentially so of late, given how my personal live-gig attendance has become relatively sparse (by my standards) during the pandemic era. With all that in mind, I figured it was high time to deliver an official nugs.net redux-or "redug," if you will to let you know if the site has been able to keep up with the high-quality demands of discerning listeners/viewers like ourselves.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
