This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

And we’ve got generations of people who think that’s what music is supposed to sound like.

There was an article on Hacker News a little ways back, about this very phenomenon in China. Basically there's now a generation that has profound nostalgia for the absolutely awful and dirt-cheap playback tech available over a 30 years ago. To the point that "music doesn't sound right" on newer tech, and may well be outright un-listenable without crappy hardware in play. By this, I think we can predict that "Bluetooth audio emulation" on newer and better devices, is absolutely going to be a thing eventually.
