Alright kids, gather 'round. I want to tell you about a time before smartphones.
After, Dax, it was after the dinosaurs. Now be quiet and let me tell you the story.
Back then, you had to buy your mp3 player separately, they didn't come with your phone, or your watch or as the prize in the bottom of your cereal box.
And they were expensive! A few hundred dollars each. No! Really! And you could only store a few songs on them.
No, not "a few thousand", Dax. A few, like 25-50. Tops. I'm not talk albums either. 25-50 songs total.
What's that Dax? "What's an album?" Ug, never mind that. Just listen to the story.
So your dad wanted one of these newfangled mp3 players. Specifically the MuVo NX from Creative Labs. Ah, it was a sight, ran on a single AA battery, had 256 megabytes of storage and an FM radio receiver, all in a tiny package. Everyone wanted an iPod, but your dad only had eyes for the MuVo.
iPod. No, not a iPod Touch. Before those.
No, not a Nano, this was before that too.
NO! Look, the first iPod. It had a hard drive in it! The size of my hand. NO! It didn't do anything else! NO! The MuVo didn't do anything else either!
Alright, just forget it. Go play with your robots. Man, kids these day, no respect.
