I think the digital age stands out the most, in my life. Going from cassettes to CDs and VHS to DVD, specifically.

My first taste was getting a CD player, like most. shyt was a $120 Koss boombox, and that shyt was my high school baby. I made MAD mixtapes off of CDs, sold them to friends all the time. I just thought it was dope as fukk to be able to skip songs like that, without having to pinpoint on a cassette.

Skipping was a problem back then, tho :scusthov:

DVDs, tho, nikkas. We AENO how bad we had it rewinding, struggle tracking for a clear picture, mad porno hiding. DVDs dropped and life was never the same for me. My first player was my PS2, and along with new gaming, DVDs just crushed all my gotdamn buildings :wow:

MP3s might be the undisputed king that changed it all, but my mind was already prepared for what gracious fukkery the techno gods were preparing for us :blessed:

Broadband for me as well, especially since I was stuck with dial-up for the longest. :why:

yep, the internet was amazing enough. and now you could access it literally more than 10 times faster. it was a huge jump

Honestly, I'm the type who holds on and won't jump onto new technology unless I have to. I was still trying to work with VHS until about 2005-06. I didn't get an iPod until 2008ish. I miss getting new cd players..

Just the total package of a smart phone... Never seen anything become so close to an all in one package
