    Like where are all those cassette players?
    The changes came quick. Remember just before them 8 track players. I still remember having one of those mounted under the dash of my car. Right after the cassettes came CD’s. Remember how you could burn your own CD. Then came digital. Remember Ipods. I still have an Ipod without blue tooth. You have to plug headphones into it to hear the music. My newest car doesn’t even offer a CD player anymore.

      That’s just the thing, it’s so recent and everyone has, or had, a bunch of all these things, where are they?

      In the 90’s it wasn’t uncommon to have old radios from the 30’s just as decoration or furniture. Even after moving to a new place. They were just kept as a relic.

      A walkman doesn’t take up much space, and some were fucking gorgeous, at least if handled correctly…
