Many forms of legacy media are very prevalent in my every day life, even though many people consider these forms of media to be obsolete. No, I do not watch VHS tapes or listen to CD’s anymore, but I do have many memories of these forms of media from when I was younger. These forms of legacy media are associated with my childhood and make me feel very nostalgic. I still remember burning CD’s to listen to in the car, or burning CD’s to give to my friends in elementary school. These memories are a lot more meaningful to me than the first day I downloaded Spotfiy, which I don’t even remember. Another legacy media is the newspaper, which my dad gets delivered to our house every day. There is something about reading an article in a newspaper that reading an article on the internet just can’t compare to. Newer media like the internet is supposed to make other forms of media obsolete, but instead in my life it has made forms of legacy media even more appreciated and used. At first, trying out new media can be exciting, for example I still remember when my Amazon Kindle came in the mail many years ago, but after a while new media can become obsolete. I quickly ditched my Kindle for regular paper books, and to this day I still do not know where my Kindle is. New media can be a hassle, but old media is basic, reliable, and oddly comforting to use in a world that so quickly changes and updates.
