Unused Sub Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I feel cheated out of the millennium celebrations now. No one said about being worried for your VCR having a meltdown for 2001! So why does the excel date line start at 1900? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAB a must as is a USB for streaming and before someone mentions bluetooth for streaming, in my experience the audio quality suffers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is off the phone these days. Everything? I have about 500 albums on an SD card in my phone. Almost invariably played on shuffle (bluetooth, the sound quality is fine as far as I'm concerned). Basically, "Radio Mooney". But that's just a fraction of my CD collection. What happens when I want to hear that old CD that isn't in there (typically long form stuff - classical, jazz, etc. - ideal for long solo road trips)? I need a CD player.

Davkaus Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Every few weeks, the trams grind to a halt, because of people who are either blind, or intellectually deficient. Like this joker. They've approached this road and thought "yup, I'll ignore the lane markings, no entry signs and tram only signs. This looks like the route for me." Then driven a couple of hundred meters up a railway presumably thinking "this is an odd road". It deserves an immediate surrender of their licence.

It's built into the dash. I put one of those cassette things that you can plug your phone into and use it like a USB. And I have a 6 CD changer in the glovebox. FM radio is shit though. No decent music anywhere to be found. That's what pisses me off, the UK and it's shitty FM radio stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My CD collection these days consists of about a dozen CDs. They're all shit and they're all on Spotify anyway. I haven't bought physical music in about a decade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have all my CDs, cassettes, VHS tapes and DVDs - in a storage unit. Not sure they're worth anything otherwise i'd sell them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
