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 What outdated technology do you still use willingly on a regular basis?

CDs. I absolutely refuse to buy into this "vinyl is better" hogwash and streaming services never have the selection or audio quality I want.

There is an esoteric quality to vinyl that can't be reproduced on CD. And CDs replaced vinyl so... vinyl is an older technology. I have both.

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.

Album covers and liner notes are a lost art form.

True. That’s one thing about MP3s and streaming music that’s lacking.

Even with digital downloads, you can't get a pdf of the album cover. It's sad.

Apple tried to replicate the experience in the iTunes Store a decade ago, with digital album covers and liner notes going with purchased music, but it never really worked. It just wasn’t the same.

I still have a few of those files. They keep getting separated from the music files.
