As the parent of an 8 yr old, I absolutely feel this.

We use CDs at home, thanks to my wife resisting getting rid of her huge collection years ago. Mine got stolen :(

They may have been first released in 1982, but CDs are still the most high-tech widespread way to buy music. Newer technologies to buy music, like SACD and DVD-A have never had widespread support.

Awesome! My kiddos love digging through my vinyl collection.

Love it!

I have been dj’ing for ~20 years, and have a sizeable house music vinyl collection. I can’t wait for my kiddo to get into it. She’s showing interest already.

Same! ~25 years or so for me. I'm just now letting my oldest begin to manipulate the vinyl records beyond just playing them, but they've both loved slapping CDs into my CDJs and going wild with them.
