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.
Great, reading this while listening to the radio, huge stereo wall, Onkio tuner, FM antenna in the attic, coax cable trough the house,… I have a constant quality and yes, internet radio is a tad better, but the biggest issue there is the delay. When you have radio in multiple rooms, the different delays are a use sourec of irritation. Also my wife finds the sount to harsh witn sattelite radio or DAB.
As long as FM is available, I’ll use it for radio. When it’s end of the road for FM, I’ll switch to my own collection. (And in the car, no alternative to FM, CD of cassette)
hell yeah!! I loved listening to the radio growing up.
I still like it, but it’s more background music. The programming went from vertical (every day another style the whole day long) to horizontal (every day, same style at the same hours), which is really boring.
