5.0

~ I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads in exchange for an honest review ~

I have never been so enthralled with such an educational read.
The story of the invention of the MP3 through to modern day was a lot more intense than I had thought it was, and this narrative had me on the edge of my seat, willing myself not to google anything so that I could enjoy every surprise along the way. The three story lines worked really well together, and it's very obvious right from the start that Mr. Witt has spent as much time and effort as possible to get all of the facts. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever listened to music, and can see myself returning to read it again in the future.
