How do you listen to music?

How do you listen to music? MP3 player, iPhone, radio, internet, vinyl?

 

If the 50’s and 60's were the era of the record, in the 70's we had tape, (lovely 8-tracks and cassettes!), and the Sony Walkman, then CD's in the 80’s and now MP3's.

 

This Day in Music is running a poll to find out how you listen to your music.

Mostly CDs in the car and while I'm taking a shower.

iTunes on my computer.

mp3 player when I'm travelling by plane, train etc. (seldom).

Quite a lot online through links to YouTube etc.

A few radio shows recorded via my SkyPlus box.

I reckon that just about covers it.

Vinyl thru the 70's into the 80's

8 track and reel-reel in the 70's /early 80's

Cassettes mid-80's to early 90's

CDs early 90's-2005 or so...

Presently primarily MP3, but definitely still CD and occasionally vinyl.

Used to use Winamp but it started getting buggy on me and I switched to Songbird today, I really like it. I don't like the iTunes interface, it's annoying and to my knowledge there isn't even a way to enque songs (maybe you need an add-on? does Apple even let you do that without hacking your copy? I dunno... Apple is just so non-customizable usually, which is not to my taste).

 

My old mp3 player broke so when I'm out of the house it's an ancient (8 years old, I think... so half as old as I am haha) 1 GB player for me that's served me well in between all my normal players for a few years now.

 

Then CDs for music that I can blast, and a lot of my dad's old vinyls for if I want to listen to classical or jazz/blues/whatever. (<3 vinyls, our player's a little shitty though.)

Winamp can be quite buggy; I'd say that's its one major flaw. I can't use my iPod with it anymore, so I have to use iTunes as well, but only to load songs onto my iPod. I just can't stand iTunes. They're always shoving products in your face and it's quite annoying. It tries to consume your computer and do so many things on its own. Maybe I'll try Songbird out.
