Not Your Parents Way Of Listening To Music

By Matt Thames


There are many ways to listen to your favorite music. A record player is a good start, but even better than that is an 8-track player. You can easily skip thought the songs without having to pick up the needle and potentially scratch the vinyl. Even better is the new, compact audio cassettes. They are very portable and you can even listen to them in your car or truck. In addition to being very portable, they are very reliable and unless you leave them in the direct sunlight on your dashboard, you should get a couple of years of worry free musical enjoyment.

Wait a second, this isn't the 80's, and we have much better options than these old-fashioned and distorted means of listening to the music. We are in the digital age and we have much greater ways to listen to our favorite music than theses scratchy, old-fashioned formats. From CDs, which practically seem outdated these days, to digital downloads and satellite subscription radio, the current options you have to listen to your favorite music and choose an assortment of music to listen to has never been better.

Many people still utilize CDs as their preferred format to listen to music, but even if they purchase the CD, they will typically download it onto another device making it more portable. CDs are portable and somewhat durable, but ultimately, after spending too much time bouncing around in your glove box, they can get worn out.

Many people will make a back-up disc to take along in the car for fear of ruining the original disc, but more individuals are opting to download the music directly to a more portable device like an MP3 device, and take that device along with them as opposed to the CD. So many of the new cars and new stereos have built in plugs to connect your MP3 device, you don't need to worry about lugging a book of CDs along with you wherever you go.

What's even better is once you get to your destination; you simply unplug the device and put it in your pocket for easy listening on the go. Most people bypass the entire CD altogether and just download the music from a digital source on their computer or directly onto their portable device. Once it is on the device you are able to transfer it onto your PC for safe back-up and distribution to different devices if you wish.
