for better or worse i believe that streaming has eclipsed all of these formats. radio is still out there as well technically a type of streaming as well. rs
What? No love for reel-to-reel, el-cassette, MiniDisk or DAT?
Yeah, I was a Betamax and LaserDisc die-hard.
I have a relative who still buys LaserDiscs at garage sales and thrift stores.
Laserdiscs were great -- I had a huge collection. The drag with them now is that none of them were bumped up to HD, so if you play them through a contemporary TV set, they look like shit.
Remember hearing that CDs and LaserDiscs would last forever? Hah! A few years back, I opened an LD after 30 years in shrink-wrap. Video had red spots all over it. Laser Rot!
In Yiddish, "vinyl" can be translated as "פֿ×™× ×™×œ" (finyil) or "×•×•×™× ×™×œ" (vinil). The phrase "Vinyl Rules" would translate to something like "×¤×™× ×™×œ הערשט" (finyil hersht) or "×•×•×™× ×™×œ הערשט" (vinil hersht), meaning "Vinyl Rules".
