This was cutting edge tech… I remember the excitement of replacing floppy discs with CDRs…

    I’m old enough to remember when that was the fancy new thing the kids were doing.

      Me too, either old enough or poor enough. I had nothing but tapes and records until I seen a kid with a Discman at school and I HAD TO HAVE ONE. My mom got me one for Christmas finally and I had already traded up for every Nirvana CD, just had them there waiting.

      I jumped to burning CDs as quickly as I could because I always wanted to be one step ahead with tech.

      It’s crazy how far behind I am now. I always buy used phones, haven’t updated anything in my pc since 2014ish, still rocking a 2009 Mac Pro for music production.

      I have, eh, how do you say? Got old? :(
