walkman: do you still have/use one?  |
|
i was thinking today about what a great invention the mp3 player is. we can fit thousands of songs on to a device that's smaller than an audio cassette.
i remember owning one of those portable cassette players, a walkman. it was a small, slim model but was still bulky compared to the biggest ipod and i had to also carry a large amount of cassettes whenever i wanted to take my walkman on a train journey or to the beach.
do you still own a walkman, if so do you still use it? do you know anyone who still uses a walkman?

42. julie85 (3578) | 6 months ago | I use to have it many years before, but I follow the technology. I don't have one anymore. Sure, it can be still work and cost a less if some store still sell that. I used to have it, when wiht my internet I got a free mp3 player. At start, I was still use my discman but more the time advance more I get to utilize my mp3 player. Now, I sell my walkman to another who wish to have one...and now use my old mp3 player haha because that since 2005 I got it,, and don't plan to change untill it broke or maybe got another one free haha!

43. BlueGoblin (1385) | 6 months ago | Sony still uses the name walkman even though it's an mp3 player now. I still have a bunch of cassettes and play them. I use to buy them in the late 90s because they were so much cheaper than CDs at the time. But then mp3s and Napster came out and you could get everything for free. lol

44. baldypriest (283) | 6 months ago | I haven't used a Walkman since the mid-1990s. Hard to believe it has been so long. I don't think I even know of anybody who owns one.

45. jaisundar (184) | 6 months ago | Earlier i had a walkman. But often bored with it as the cell gets easily exosted after 3 hours of usage. But after MP3 inventation its very nice to hear songs without any interruption continously for more than a day.

48. UK_Shree (1843) | 6 months ago | Yes I did have a walkman! And unlike you, I never had one of those cool slim ones, I had a really fat geeky one which I was always a bit embarassed to get out in public! I used to hate the hassle of carrying loads of tapes on me, and having to fast forward or rewind just to find a tune that I wanted to hear! I think the advent of mp3s is a truly brilliant thing and it has revolutionised the way we listen to music when we are out and about.

49. marcyyyy (285) | 6 months ago | Yes, I still have and use a walkman. I don't have an mp3 player yet. My walkman still works, and I guess I'll use it until it doesn't!! I only use it when I go out for a walk...which isn't every day. So, I still get by without the mp3. Can you believe it???!!!LOL! Take care!

marcyyyy (285) | 6 months ago | Yeah, it's kinda awkward, and I have headphones on my head, and it's too heavy to hang on my clothes...but, guess I'm still kinda old-fashioned!!! lol!

50. suzzy3 (3913) | 6 months ago | I haven't heard anything about walkmans for years,my son has an ipod with thousands of songs on it and it is so small.Every thing is so much smaller these days .I still find those tiny things have so much technology in them and all those tunes.Like you say with the walk man ear phones over your head a pocket big enough to put the thing in,or a belt clip,then pockets of cassettes.The thing is when you buy these things as presents for the kids they seem so small.Not like the bigger boxes we used to have it felt like a present,and all those 45's.LP records vinyl filling up every shelf in the bedroom and the hi fi in the corner.at least it looked like you had something,we have spent hundreds on my son and he can fit most of it in his top drawer along with his underwear.How things have changed.
