Or do you just mean YOU don't need to do SA anymore?

Not with a Nakamichi tape deck or a Sony Pro Walkman they don't.
Come to think of it I have a pristine example of the latter somewhere....

Cars will have onscreen navigation for years to come...it won't be SatNav though. Android Auto is set to put Google Maps at the heart of vehicle navigation. The old SatNav technology will disappear.

I mean they're on the way out, this government is committed to that. Another reference to digital tax accounts in the Autumn Statement today, CGT on residential 2nd properties to be calculated on completion and tax paid within 30 days is another nail in the coffin of SA.

Blimey, that's a good one.
I remember queuing for an hour one evening at Blockbuster Video to borrow some "just out" movie.

Sensible answer!
They were freeze-dried peas, if I remember rightly. Home freezers weren't common, but you could buy packets of these peas, add boiling water, and hey presto! peas without having to shell them. One of the wonders of the age (early to mid 60s, I guess).
Once frozen peas and home freezers came in, they were gone...........

Wasn't suggesting you were sir! Just wondered if you had any idea why they were popular in some circles.

Really? I'm not convinced. Even a 128kbps mp3 sounds much better. The hiss of a cassette doesn't have that lovely warmth of a record crackle.

I just bought a second hand car complete with a cassette deck. I have dusted off a load of old cassette s and they sound superb. That said It's only a matter of time before they start to chew up. But for now I think the sound is superior to digital. (I am not a hipster btw).
