I'm so old a good fart can send me to the chiropractor.

I remember listening to the music on my tv.

I remember listening to the music on my tv.

I remember listening to 45 rpm's an my parents' 76's on the "record player"

My mother gave us kids a healthy dose of her generation music. I still love the big band sounds of the late thirties and forties. Her records were 78's... just a couple of rpms faster than your parents music 🤣 We had a wind up player too. I don't think it was an Edison... maybe a Victrola, but we had a lot of Edison records.

I'm so old that the good record player didn't have a 45rpm setting and it was a nice piece of furniture. It was a record player and a tube radio with a speaker at the bottom and record storage on each side of it. I'd love to have it now.

For me, 67 was very nearly 7 years ago.

I'm so old that I always show respect to my seniors.. though they are not numerous. I'm honored to quote your post, Sir.

I knew I was gettin old when the cute checkout girls at the store called me Sir.

 

[olbriar]

I knew I was getting old when all of the young ladies looked like little girls.

 

[Milo Willamson]

[Davdi]

There's a checkout girl at our local supermarket who looks about twelve.

There is an advantage to physical media, whether it's music or movies. I have some things on DVD (even videotape) that will never be streamed. Ever. It's too obscure, rare, unheard of. I streamed the album of a band from the 1990s of which I'm fond: I don't know who bought the rights to the catalog, but one of the songs on the album was changed to a different version. The ONLY way I can listen to the original version is either on my CD or my personal media library of ripped music. There's another CD from an artist in the 1980s and an entire track was removed from the online album! Streaming is convenient, yes... but it comes with the compromise of being at the mercy of the streaming service.
