My husbands cd he listens to daily turned 20 today. He still has his CD wallet in his car with him. Seems quintessentially British to not move with the times.

I have a CD wallet with about 100 CDs in my car too. Everything from Hixy Hardcore Bounce to Romantic Power Ballads…
Same here my car has a cd player and its the only chnace i get to listen to my cds
Up until a couple of years back, I was still burning CDs for the car. Took for the cd player in my car to break to finally accept Bluetooth and Spotify.
Tune!
Ring, ding-dong, ring-a-ding, ding, ding-dong
I have lots of cds that are old as some people’s children.
I bought a used car with a CD player in about 2008. When I played around with the 6 CD changer in the boot, I found a copy of Jagged Little Pill, by Alanis Morisette within it.
I listened to that semi regularly between 2008-2016, when I sold the car. I decided to leave the disc in the CD changer as a treat for the next person and because I thought I’d probably listened to the album more than enough times and I was getting tired of it. (Although it is absolutely fantastic, and I urge you to listen to it if you haven’t heard it in a few years)
A few weeks later, I replaced the car with a newer second hand car bought from a different dealer.
Within the CD player in the boot was another copy of Jagged Little Pill.
If you were to misuse the word, in the way that Alanis does, you could say it is a little bit ironic.
I’ve had the same CD in my car for the last 20 years and assumed I was the only one.
No it doesn’t. I’ve never heard that trait as one that’s “quintessentially British” ever in my entire life.
I’ve got some chipped ps1 games burned onto CDs still. They’re probs my oldest kept cds
What’s an MP3?
He just didn’t give up quality quality for our current musical choices. I listen to Nirvana, Unplugged, every day, since it came out.
The same is true with some White Stripes and the Metalica “black” album.
Same with some Who, the Animals/war, LED Zeppelin, AC/DC, Triumph, etc.
Good music doesn’t die. It just ages like a great bourbon or wine.
Real music by real artists. No auto-tune.
I love listening to young people reacting to one of the artists above as they experience this music for their first time.
I get to relive my first exposure to the songs from the past with another’s first exposure. Simply marvelous. Everyone should try it.
I have a 1TB thumbdrive that I reformatted to Fat32, so my aging Nissan stereo can read it. I suck at stuff like that, so it took me about 4 hours, trying various free programs….
I’ve also still got a CD wallet in my car, too. Two actually! And a box of them in the boot…
Still good for long journeys when the radio annoys me or I lose signal.
