re: How did you find new music pre-internet?

I know it was what the corporate music industry wanted, but I listened to the radio and went to the record store.

(Records were these discs of pressed vinyl that stored music in an analog form and were played back on a device called a "turntable" with a needle stylus to decode the music and play back through "loudspeakers." It was pretty rad, I must admit.)

I was also a Day 1 MTV viewer ( ) - back when that station played music videos, much like a radio station would play musical recordings.

I would also take advice from those with similar music taste on what new music or new artist I should listen to.
