咱们这次自驾游,你想用哪个音乐软件放歌?
zán men zhè cì zì jià yóu, nǐ xiǎng yòng nǎ ge yīn yuè ruǎn jiàn fàng gē?
For our road trip this time, which music app do you want to use to play songs?

我平时用网易云音乐,它推荐的歌单挺合我口味的。
wǒ píng shí yòng wǎng yì yún yīn yuè, tā tuī jiàn de gē dān tǐng hé wǒ kǒu wèi de.
I usually use NetEase Cloud Music; the playlists it recommends really fit my taste.
L
我更喜欢QQ音乐,它的曲库大,很多新歌都能找到。
wǒ gèng xǐ huān QQ yīn yuè, tā de qǔ kù dà, hěn duō xīn gē dōu néng zhǎo dào.
I prefer QQ Music; its library is bigger, and you can find a lot of new songs.

其实两个都行,关键是山区里没信号,那时候怎么办?
qí shí liǎng ge dōu xíng, guān jiàn shì shān qū lǐ méi xìn hào, nà shí hou zěn me bàn?
Actually both are fine; the key issue is there's no signal in the mountains—what do we do then?
L
没问题,咱们出发前把歌都下载到手机里就行了。
méi wèn tí, zán men chū fā qián bǎ gē dōu xià zǎi dào shǒu jī lǐ jiù xíng le.
No problem—we can just download all the songs to our phones before we leave.
W
不过下载歌曲一般得开会员吧?
bú guò xià zǎi gē qǔ yì bān děi kāi huì yuán ba?
But downloading songs usually requires a membership, right?
L
对,我正好有会员,下个五百首歌完全没问题。
duì, wǒ zhèng hǎo yǒu huì yuán, xià ge wǔ bǎi shǒu gē wán quán méi wèn tí.
Right, I happen to have a membership, so downloading five hundred songs is totally fine.
W
那太好了,不过下载的时候最好连着Wi-Fi,要不然太费流量了。
nà tài hǎo le, bú guò xià zǎi de shí hou zuì hǎo lián zhe Wi-Fi, yào bù rán tài fèi liú liàng le.
Great, but when downloading, it's best to stay connected to Wi-Fi, otherwise it uses too much data.

说得对,那我今晚在家连着Wi-Fi把歌单都下好。
shuō de duì, nà wǒ jīn wǎn zài jiā lián zhe Wi-Fi bǎ gē dān dōu xià hǎo.
Good point—I'll download all the playlists at home tonight while connected to Wi-Fi.
W
记得建一个专门开车听的歌单,咱们俩一起往里加歌。
jì de jiàn yí ge zhuān mén kāi chē tīng de gē dān, zán men liǎ yì qǐ wǎng lǐ jiā gē.
Remember to create a playlist just for driving, so the two of us can add songs to it together.
L
好主意!你现在就把想听的歌名发给我吧。
hǎo zhǔ yi! nǐ xiàn zài jiù bǎ xiǎng tīng de gē míng fā gěi wǒ ba.
Good idea! Just send me the names of the songs you want to hear right now.
W
好,这样就算路上没信号,咱们也能一路听着歌开车了。
hǎo, zhè yàng jiù suàn lù shàng méi xìn hào, zán men yě néng yí lù tīng zhe gē kāi chē le.
OK, that way even if there's no signal on the road, we can still drive listening to music the whole way.
