"had to replace" lol no one is making you get rid of your records and tapes bro. They still work fine.

    All those records were really heavy to haul from one renoviction to another hovel, so we recorded to tape and sold the records cheap in the 90s.

    The tapes stuck around until we could afford a car that was new enough to have a cd player, sometime around the economy crashing.

    Now we have a home that we will own some day and for a while, it was great cruising thrift stores for $3 old vinyl for the turntable inherited from boomer parents, but hipsters caught on and all that is left now are nana mouskouri and henry mancini and bill cosby.
