Things I don't particularly miss about the '80s and '90s, music industry edition:
1. Having to phone the radio station and ask the DJ in order to find out the name of the song and artist. And then having no way to hear it again that day unless you went to the record store. And even then they might not have it. You kids these days with your YouTube and your Spotify, you're lucky.
2. Having to do a somewhat involved math problem in order to best arrange the songs on a 90-minute mix tape.
3. "Hidden tracks" that took the form of a 14-minute track at the end of a CD: a 4-minute song, then 5 minutes of silence, then the hidden track. Srsly, who told them people would like that?
