      I still bring my iPod on planes. What outdated technology do you still use willingly on a regular basis?

      A turntable and vinyl records, though I guess that’s new again. My millennial son is a dedicated VHS and cassette tape devotee.

      I just can’t understand why anyone would want to resurrect cassettes for music. The sound quality sucked and they frequently jammed. Seriously, I laugh at anyone who turns a nose up at MP3 sound quality but listens to cassettes.🙄

      I like to say that vinyl most definitely does *not* produce more *accurate* sound reproduction compared to CD, but it *does* sound *different* in a way that many people find more pleasurable.

      I follow a bunch of guys on Twitter who are vinyl obsessed. I love watching the picture disk vids they put up of the songs. There is NOTHING like a picture disc, a rare vinyl or an exciting album cover (Thin Lizzy Jailbreak) Nobody talks about the day they downloaded a tune.

      I didn’t say there weren’t *other* reasons to like vinyl. I loved great artwork and liner notes with letters large enough that I could actually read them. It’s just that accurate sound reproduction is *not* the reason to pick vinyl over CD.

          Memories of the family listening to records. Somehow holding onto something, like a book makes it seem real. The imperfections makes it seem warm to me. But I fully expect younger people not to have that type of outlook

          Cassettes don’t have that reaction and the sound really is terrible and it wears out pretty fast. It certainly is as more conveniently. You didn’t have to have a record player in the trunk. But if convince is what you want....

          I started out with tapes, then vinyl, then cds, (mostly cds) now vinyl again. I miss the cd booklets. Vinyl doesn't have them, I used to spend hours 'studying' lyrics as a teen 🤣 good times but I like the record sound. ☺️.

          Oh I am in no way disagreeing with you, on that or trying to call you out on anything. I totally agree about the sound, and bit just from the vinyl too but everything from the stylus up can be customized to make each setup unique, and probably drifts away from perfect/accurate
