5. Not On Demand

Now we have everything on demand, but it wasn't always that way. You used to actually have to work to watch the things you wanted to watch. It was crazy! I remember waiting next to the radio for six hours for a song to come on. I wasn't even trying to record it. I just wanted to listen to it. When it finally came on I didn't even know how to feel. The journey took so long I wasn't even sure it was worth it. It doesn't matter if it was worth it. The point is, it was all that we had.

I can definitely say that getting music is way easier and better than it used to be, and while that isn't necessarily fair to the artists, it does make it a whole lot better. I would hate to go back to the days of having to go to the store and buy a whole CD. If you just wanted to listen to one song you'd have to change the CD to a different one. Yuck.
