I dreamed I worked for a startup that was bringing the warmer sound of analog audio to the convenience of online services.It was basically Spotify but we had a massive tape library and a bunch of automated cassette players that could stream audio to your phone over the internet

@foone For about 10 years I had registered "Instagramaphone.com" and always wanted to make a site where your pristine digital audio world be digitally degraded like Instagram filters do to photos. Never got around to it and eventually got enough threats from Meta that i just gave it to them.

Which is clearly dream nonsense because if you were going to build analog-Spotify, you'd use vinyl

Also despite my complaints, the internet still doesn't support analog streaming. I still say we should add it. I want to stream VHS tapes through a circuit switched network, damn it

@foone and it would use your phone's motion sensor to skip like hell and the stream would have corresponding damage on your next play

@foone it existed in France with DVD (a complex service made to rent/buy DVD ripped on the fly that you can resell for someone else, to avoid pirating laws)
