Which is a shame.

When I were a lad growing up in deepest darkest Essex I used to make mix tapes for girlfriends, before they were girlfriends, to woo them. I was thinking the other day that soon people won't be able to do that, it'll just be a playlist on a scratched iPod or something, which takes out the heart of it. Having to listen to the whole thing from start to finish, pressing pause between tracks, thats what made the thing special, and future generations won't have that. Even making a CD is different, unless you make a cover. Which is a shame.
