Original release notes
CarPlay is here. Your shows come along for the ride, right on the dash, easy to reach, and playing before you're out of the driveway. Siri can run the show too. Say "Play a show on Live Music Archive" and it starts playing, on your phone or in the car, even straight from your downloads. The lost tapes are back. Plenty of older shows only exist as Shorten (.shn) recordings, so they never made it into the app. Now they play like everything else. Plus a fresh recording page with a Play button you can't miss, cleaner venue names and show dates across the catalog, and a stack of speed and playback fixes.
