I remember back when I was younger I would use VHS tapes to watch movies and tv shows. I remember always watching The Teletubbies and Barnie. I specifically remember when my brother would watch his Thomas the Train and The Wiggles, VHS tapes. I believe my family still has all the VHS tapes but we don’t ever use them anymore because they are so obsolete now a days. I even think that DVD’s will eventually become obsolete because of all the things, like Hulu, Netflix, Youtube and many other things that have movies and shows to watch. I have Netflix and that is all I ever watch and I rarely even watch regular tv anymore.

Another thing that has become obsolete is the use of CD’s. I remember having a stereo when I was younger and I would always play the Hannah Montana CD, or the High School Musical CD. Even now, in the newer model of cars they don’t even have a place for you to play a CD. They all have bluetooth or a place for an auxiliary cord to use your phone to play music. There are so many apps like, Spotify,  and iTunes where you can create your own playlist of your favorite music and you don’t even have to buy the CD’s and then burn all your favorite songs on one CD. I remember my dad used to do that and my mom did it one time, just so that they had all their favorite songs on one CD.

When I was younger I had a Nintendo DS and PSP. I played those devices all the time. I don’t remember the last time I’ve seen someone playing on one of those devices. Now everything is played on XBOX, or the PS4. My family has a Wii but I couldn’t tell you the last time we used that because we now have a PS4. It’s crazy how all the devices I used to use, I don’t ever use them anymore and they are just sitting around my house taking up space.

It’s amazing how over time the media I used has changed from using VHS to Netflix, from CD’s to iTunes, from Nintendo DS to PS4. Media is always changing and it will continue to change.
