    Most modern day cars don’t even come with CD players anymore and it simply is not as convenient as just making a quick playlist on a streaming service. And you aren’t gonna carry around a Sony Discman while working out at the gym are you💀

      Don’t mind me here with my walkman and cassettes.

      But yes the lack of cassette decks and compact disc players in the wild has reached new heights unfortunately, hell they’re getting rid of AUX ports now, the absolute fucking cunts they are! My laptops don’t even have disk drives anymore, I had to get an external one.

        Don’t worry I also have a few cassettes and a cassette deck laying around and as much as I would love to go back in time and throw in a good old tape in the car radio, it just ain’t like that anymore you gotta at LEAST bluetooth it in new cars if not Apple Car Play/Android Auto because like you said they are getting rid of Aux ports

      In most countries it is legal to rip discs and there are many many tools for that. I have a script, so with a press of a button it is copied in FLAC format to my NAS. This is the way to actually buy and own music today, with total privacy and without non open source programs.
