When I was a kid my family owned a device whose sole purpose was to rewind vhs tapes.

    My phone still has an SD card slot. So I can put my 64 GB SD card inside and have more music offline than my 4 GB iPod could ever have.

    The iPod is a nice little piece of almost antique tech. But I’d still be using my phone over it.

        For running, I got a smartwatch that can store some music locally, so I don’t need to be connected to listen. Still not perfect, kind of a hassle to use, and doesn’t always work perfectly. Almost miss those tiny iPod nanos. I feel like portable dedicated music players have gone backwards in features and usability with the rise in popularity of perpetually connected Internet devices and streaming services.

          Ha, but with that smart watch we have almost came a full circle :) Except of course, it’s multipurpose and I presume much more expensive device now. What’s the model?
