.: This ain't your daddy's 8-track player

Years ago people living on the streets didn't have as many options for entertainment that were as mobile as them. CD players damaged easily by salt air breezes over time, cassette players even more susceptible, and 8 track players that were bulky with a huge push bar for changing tracks.

Today we've got MP3 players that are smaller than a person's thumb and can store in many cases four hours of audio. The choices are unlimited, compared to technology years ago...we make what we want rather than rely on manufacturers.

Ten years from now maybe we'll have a plan that can keep up with technology that keeps people in homes.
