Oh for sure. I'm don't think I'd want to give up today situation. The ability to discover new music, get so much of it on demand, podcasts, etc. Just wonderful. I suppose I just appreciate, as a hacker, the very flexible abstraction of being able to take anything through the stereo cord, and record it with the play, pause, rewind, and record buttons. I was able to do so much as a 7-year-old. It seemed more complicated to learn digital sound editing software, CDs weren't always so rewritable, etc.
