You should get together with gideongallery. He likes to talk about VCR's. You could bring the cassette deck. I'll bring the reel to reel tape machine. It won't matter...none of it put together for all the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's combined would add up to just one hour of people downloading stolen content today.

This got me to thinking about the stereo system I had back in the late 70s
I had everything to make copies but they never went to anyone else.
Albums went to the reel to reel for continuous play.
Albums went on cassette so I could listen to them in the car.
Had lots of friends but I was never asked to make them a tape.
I'm sure others gave out copies but it was nowhere near what happens today with intellectual property
