Remember being legit rattled when they stopped making cars with cassette players about 8 years ago. I used to connect my iPod to play music in the car.

I just found a whole binder full of cd's in my boxes the other day. About to put them in my car which still has a player. Bought the car in December, 2016.
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown;
Thus unlamented let me die;
Steal from the world, and not a stone
Tell where I lie.

I asked this when I bought my last car too, and the other forum I frequent was shocked that I still listened to CDs. We're old, Muzz.

-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

Man when I was into car audio back in the day, they were selling CD changers you could install in the trunk. And you needed to run wires n chit from the head unit to the changer

Actually crazy how quickly things have moved

I went to buy a CD player to put in my sons first car just to find out no one buys cd players anymore. They look the same minus the cd slot.

First they came for the 8 tracks, and OP did not speak out—
Because OP was not on 8 tracks.

Then they came for the cassette decks, and OP did not speak out—
Because OP was not on cassettes.

Then they came for the Minidiscs, and OP did not speak out—
Because OP was not on Minidiscs.

Then they came for OP's "Now That's What I Call Music" cd's —and there was no one left to speak for OP, except to declare that he was a *******.
