Thanks for the great DevBlog Dave. Nice information on some of the musical artists. I'm looking forward to hearing the new playlist in the game. I'm liking the diversity of music in AU so far. Thanks to Neil & J.F.C & The Virtual Community for signing so many of the musical artists for AU too. I'm also looking forward to the new accessories in the next update as I know there are a lot. I know we had that issue earlier in the week with the Hub being inaccessible, but I'm glad the dev team is working on optimizing its performance. Keep fixing those bugs too! As always, I would like to thank everyone at Atom Republic and the entire AU team for all your efforts. It's very much appreciated. Keep up the great work! :)
