maybe one day we will be able to plan a Mars mission using our phones? But until then I am perfectly alright just making a phone call and spinning vinyl. I invited a friend over {lady friend} and had her listen to some vinyl. She was amazed how good it sounded and asked why she enjoyed it so much more then her ipod and CD player. I really had no answer but to say it just sounds better.
Vinyl in the News
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Credit cards may soon be as outdated as vinyl records. (Remember those?) And this is the year that the slow, steady march to oblivion begins.
You can already use your iPhone, Droid or BlackBerry to buy a hotdog at the ballgame, buy your Starbucks latté, or give a friend a few bucks by Bumping phones. But by the end of the year you may not even think twice about reaching for your phone to pay at the register instead of fumbling for your credit card.
"Your plastic card hasn't changed since the age of the vinyl records," said Michael Abbott, CEO of Isis, a new mobile payment network. "This is the chance to bring payments forward from the plastic age and the vinyl records age to the digital age."
So "Perfect Money Forever" or "Due to Jitter your payment is Fuzzy"
Bottom line is that I'll still be using full resolution 180 gr gatefold credit cards 30 years from now and the kids will be paying for things with low res compressed money that they download from sketchy web sites.
