Ain't life grand!  What did we do years ago?  We listened to AM radio from an electric 
device with limited stations.  We listened to music in our cars on an 8-track tape.  We 
listened to vinyl in our room on a player of some kind.

Now, we take music with us everywhere for a small subscription fee.
