    I had this dream once of operating an early electric style studio. Not pre-electric like the first phonographs (one studio actually had a rope going into a well to spin the cylinder!) but all 1930s-era technology and recorded straight to disc. I think some musicians could really go for it. But I never did it.

    Also, I am stunned that, within my lifetime, we have gone from being able to store 30 minutes of audio on one side of a vinyl disc, to over an hour on a CD to hundreds of hours on an MP3 player, to unlimited streaming almost anywhere in the world today.
