FAQ
Q) Can I get a list of all the song titles in this set.
A) Yes - if you freeze the video at the one minute point you can read all the track titles clearly (especially in 4K).
Q) Hey you’re holding the Japanese pages wrong - the text is vertical.
A) Google Translate will only translate horizontal passages of text so the page has to be orientated that way.

Regularly asked question
Q) Why are there comments from a week ago when this video has just gone live today?
A) Patrons   / techmoan   usually have early access to videos. I'll show the first version of a video on Patreon and often the feedback I get results in a video going through further revisions to improve it. e.g. Fix audio issues, clarify points, add extra footage or cut extraneous things out. The video that goes live on youtube is the final version.
