"KIDS REACT TO WALKMANS (Portable Cassette Players)"

[Jone2three45]

Reading that makes me want to break mine out and see whats good. I need to figure out how to get some of the last bit of cassettes I have converted over to disk or possible mp3.

There's tutorials on YouTube in how to do that. I'll post them soon.

some of those kids were like 11. i'm 30 (close to age of some of their parents likely) and i don't have a single cassette. i mean i still have CDs but i don't have a cassette or even a cassette player. show them a CD player and i bet they'd recognize it.

Do you listen to Drake?

Gosh we're old

When the 13 yr old said "I feel like a 90's baby but I was not born in the 90s". Swear down it took me a second to wonder when else could he possibly be born, 2000. People were being born that late!! And he's grown up!!!

Im born in '92 and it took me a minute to realize when he was born. 13 year olds were born in '01? . These other little rugrats were bron in '05-'07

Exactly right. Cassettes were quickly forgotten, and erased from history for the most part. Some technologies survive generations even as they become outdated (CD's record players), or they maintain awareness as punch lines for the times they were relevant (boom boxes, 8 tracks), but cassettes dont have any cultural cache or real meaning. Cassettes were popular for only a short time, before the market was taken over by CDs. Most look back on cassettes a complete pain in the ass to use, and once people moved on from them --- they completely moved on from them.[DOUBLEPOST=1397521804][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yep....as if there wont be a similar video over 1st generation ipods. Society moves forward mang....no need to be offended by it. We just getting flabby day by day. Take it as a blessing.

I feel kinda silly now but as a teen i used to dub tapes all the time. my cousin would have the CDs and i'd play them back and record them on tapes. my portable tape player was garbage and kept eating up tapes. tape would snag in there and get pulled out and i'd try to wind it back up in there and sometimes they'd break.

tapes were just bad tech. like you said people were glad to abandon them and they're mostly forgotten now.

Do you listen to Drake?

those are the only Drake tracks on my iPhone.
