anti-skip sony walkmans were the no.1 selling handheld media players
snake was the no.1 video game on cellphones
cellphone plans sold you talk minutes with free nights and weekends
caller ID was an individual accessory for your land line
pay telephones were successful enough to have their own commercials. Like 1-800-C-O-L-L-E-C-T dial down the center!
VCRs were the no.1 medium for playing videos
some people still had cassettes for music over CDs
floppy discs were still useful for media storage
