17:00:00 +07:00 Lessons From a ’90s CD Collection - I have fond memories of some of the periods the author describes, mix tapes, then CDs, but I also went through a mini-disk phase as my music tastes broadenned from alt rock into electronic. When I spend a few minutes thinking about it, I'm astonished at how different everything was back then. There was no interactive world wide web, there was albums. In fact when you think about the bigger picture, bands and albums and independent record stores, and going to bars and gigs, and talking to other music lovers, quite literally music was the internet. # www.insidehook.com
