who on here owns an ipod or anything similar like an mp3 player, these things are fun toys, im in the process of importing all my cd,s onto my ipod, when its done im gonna make some kickass playlists out of all my back from the grave compilations and other albums. the ipod ive got is able to make a playlist on wothout having to keep plugging it into the computer.
yeh, thats right, theyre the ones who listen to whatever all their mates listen to, you know the types, that go around in cars with that crap blasting from their windows. people who dont understand the meaning of when and when not to enjoy their sounds and piss people off.
These new mp3 ipod thingies will never replace the true sound you get from vinyl.
If I need a portable music player to listen to tunes on the move I use my Sound Burger :-)
i enjoy my ipod when im on holiday and ive got no other means to blast some of my favourite tunes on, also in the summer i can listen to it to blot out all the crap the neighbours blast out with their stereo in the garden.
A guy I know used to have a Cadillac he inherited from his grandfather that had one of those under the dash record players. The way it works is there's a spring that mashes the record up against the needle so it doesn't skip when the car drives. Apparently it worked pretty well but it would wear out the records so that they were virtually unlistenable after only a few plays.
The little van that drives around on records, they used to have those at store called Ingenuities in Chesterfield Mall in the mid-eighties. Minus the bling though. I've told people about it and nobody ever believed me. I haven't seen one in twenty years.
Vinyl is great and I will probably always buy it. But you cannot deny the convenience and inexpensiveness of MP3s. 90% of the music I have obtained in the last two years has been in MP3 form, 9.99% has been on vinyl, I think I bought 2 CDs in the last two years, and that was a year and a half ago.
