This was amazing and reminded me of the first time I heard an mp3.
I was a freshman in college (Fall 1997) and the only music we had access to was either CDs or the radio.
Technically, you could download a .wav of a song but it was super slow (even on fast university networks) and they were huge so you couldn't save that many on the hard drives of the time.
One day, I hear multiple songs coming from my room. Songs that neither I nor my roommate had on CDs. And it clearly wasn't the radio as the songs kept switching quickly with no commercials.
I distinctly remember thinking "Wait, how is he doing that? He doesn't have those songs!"
Makes me wonder what technology is going to have that impact on my kids.
