...original-cast recording. It remembers which songs I play five times in a row and which ones I skip altogether. The Bose Lifestyle 48 - available in Britain next month for $7,094 - understands all this because it comes with uMusic, an "intelligent playback system" that stores hundreds of CDs on a hard drive and can learn its owner's musical tastes. The Lifestyle system is aimed at an affluent crowd of music lovers who don't want to bother with computer-based music jukeboxes like iTunes or RealPlayer. It makes sense, since a home stereo system typically delivers better sound...
DAVID LETTERMAN AND HOWARD STERN HAVE BEEN BRUTAL IN THEIR COMMENTS ABOUT YOU. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT? I've never listened to Howard Stern. I don't listen to the radio in my car--I listen to CDs.

Here's how it works: first you load your CDs, one at a time, into the CD player. It takes about five minutes to rip each disc and convert tracks into MP3s. Then each time you play a song, you can either mark it as a favorite (using the "+" button on the remote) or give it a thumbs-down (with the "--" button). The uMusic system stores your preferences, then creates customized presets that play songs you have indicated you like, as well as tunes from your collection that have a similar mood, melody or genre. It makes these calculations using...
