Dial Up. Yeah I know the sound and I know the time it took to load anything with. But it’s something I won’t ever miss having. I would much rather be on a 1MB connection if I had to choose between that or dial up ever again. I also hated how easy it was to be kicked off, if anyone called the phone, you were off it in seconds.
CDs are in decline and vinyl is prohibitively expensive and the lead times to get a record pressed are insane because your record will be stuck behind the millionth Urban Outfitters special edition of Rumors… so cassettes have made a weird comeback in underground scenes. Worst fucking format
