Remember popping in a CD?
It could hold up to like 15 songs!
Nostalgia is good & nice but nah I don't need artificial limits on stuff today.

And remember paying $20 in 1996 for that 15 song CD, and remember your heartbreak when you listen through for the first time and find out there was only the one song you knew that you really liked and maybe two others that were just okay?
Dark days indeed.

what about when they started to make cd players that could read a data disc full of mp3s? what a time to be alive. no need for a changer in the trunk!

Is it only their top tier (4k+more simultaneous streams) now? Last time I was subscribed it was only the lowest tier had ads. Middle tier was ad free.

The moral of the story is: no rusty banal or shitty memory is banal or shitty enough, for these postmodern kids nowadays to NOT commoditize it as "nostalgia". EXACTLY like their boomer parents with their own rusty banal or shitty items in their memory bank.
"I look around me, and the horizon seems to be at the same distance everywhere I look, therefore it must be obvious: I am at the center of the Universe."

"You found a 'tape', with it you can save once "
Yeah , what a bs thing.
That's part of the horror in survival horror though. I liked that feature in Resident Evil, etc.

Or the sudden realization that shared media experiences actually ties us together as a society
When you're growling along to a song on the radio and the dude in the next car is ripping an air guitar solo - you both look over and give 'the horns' -? Don't lie, that's almost spiritual
Hard to do when most people are plugged into their personal streams everywhere these days...

Yeah that was exactly my thought.
I don't miss commercials at all (and am annoyed they appear to be creeping back) but I do miss the mono culture quite a bit.

CDs can't be erased on the cloud, to then either push other songs on you, or the "remasters" (cough-cough In Flames), and otherwise most digital albums still hold this "artificial" limit. Even worse is when they limit it to 2-3 minutes nowadays, because Tik-Tok.
songs have been 2-3 minutes for decades now

I feel like this can still happen if they are watching live streams. Like Twitch stuff.

I think the Internet's destruction of the monoculture has contributed greatly to polarization.
