Do You Remember These?

Not long ago I was visiting some relatives where I saw these audio cassettes on a bookshelf, a 5 pack, in its original package. My first reaction was to smile as I knew they are not listening to audio cassettes any more. I asked them what's with it?

They told me that the grandfather's favorite form of entertainment is to copy music to these cassettes and then listen to them. In 2019 this might sound very strange but we are talking about a 82 year old man for whom the time has stopped some time ago.

I still remember those times when these cassettes were very popular. Then I remember the times when people were throwing out boxes full of these audio cassettes. Then I remember the times when people were throwing out CDs and so on.

Life is changing, something new is introduced to us every day and the old one is not good anymore because it's outdated. I've seen this cycle and have learned my lesson although I've never had too much of these anyway.

There's a platform I use for movies where you can review movies, TV series and read posts about actors, movies and the movie industry. When a new series is on and hyped I'm already smiling as soon posts appear with "new acquisitions". Young people love to collect all kinds of things with movies, actors as well as DVDs. Then there's another section called Flea Market, where you can find all the things they don't need. The flea market is actually a good idea as something that is not needed any more can find another owner and have a second or third life. The problem starts when no one wants anything that is old and outdated.

Usually I tend to keep up with technology, i don't like to be left behind but there's something I will regret not having and that's my Apple iPod shuffle.

I have it for ten years now, it was a gift from Oxford but this is less important. It's still working although I'm using it very often. I love it and I know everyone is using their phones for listening to music but for me this is the best, I guess I got used to it.
