Unpopular opinion: Radio taping wasn't the romantic endeavor we remember
Look, I get why people cherish the memory of recording songs from the radio (it felt personal and hands-on). But let's be real, the system was broken from the start. Waiting through commercials only to miss the song's intro, or dealing with warbly audio from signal interference, made it a chore. My friends argue it built character, but I think it built frustration. Nostalgia shouldn't gloss over the genuine hassles we endured.
