Hey !
They showed it again ! the CBS segment about boomboxes !

i for one wasn't very impressed and yet another attempt by the industry
to turn off interests.....maybe? lol....just kidding.

THEY got it wrong ....since Boomboxes are STILL HEARD and ......
so like what about this.....
why then are docks built into systems made to support the junk mp3 players !
>>> compressed garbage....or as i call them .....trash compactors !

That was good to see again!

their still useful for barbeques, pool parties, camping, backyard parties, beaches. Anytime I bring one around, people, even strangers congregate around the "boombox" to listen to the music.

cool....glad to hear that i wasn't the only one who saw it.

so like, why didn't CBS contact anyone at BOOMBOXERY ?

i guess the reason i don't really like the segment is because it
seems like an attempt by the industry to downgrade the
continued popularity of Boomboxes amongst the
proprietary devices now in use.

I was pointing out that even "Trash Compactor" users
are in need of a docking device to amplify the trash
on their little compactors.
Hence ...they need a boombox !
Which is contrary to what is told in the segment

does CBS not own artists that are being distributed by
the new proprietary devices ? .....hmmm....

Seems to me that The Segment leans towards fast dating the boomboxes and users
or did no one else get that?
Sure, i liked the fact that it was about Boomboxes ...i agree that was cool .
But was it really an advertisement for MP3 players and the i-Industry?
! okay ! i am done ranting about this topic.....haha.
