1 year agoAhhh yes, I remember the transition from the discman to the mp3 players - it was amazing! No more disc skipping when listening in the car! You suddenly had winamp in your pocket, it was so great. I had one of the cheaper ones, couldn’t afford the ipod but it was still so great.
I remember storage sizes getting bigger and bigger, and how 100s of songs on one mp3 player was mindblowing.
I also remember cameras going digital - those blew my mind. You could take as many pictures as you wanted?? And it did take up a valuable spot in your limited roll of film? And you could see it??? Holy shit, man. Then also watching the megapixels start getting better and better.
I will always remember that dial-up sound, how long it took to connect (if it did at all), and waiting for like 5 minutes watching a picture loading inch by inch on the screen. I was like 7-8 around that time I think? So my sister and I just loved searching for unicorn pictures lol
