Sony Ericsson and Xperia actually overlapped for a short time. I mean it's still a thing of the past now, but my first smart phone was the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, which had a built in PlayStation controller and PS1 emulation.
Using MSN, giving missing calls and sending SMS to the girls I used to like, downloading everything you needed (music, movies, etc.), being reluctant to upload pictures of yourself to the internet (as it always should be)...I miss those days 😥
@@i.m.2377 I feel ya, friend! Seeing your crush online and hearing the *beep* when she wrote back; giving those weird wizz-buzzers to people who don't respond but must to; innocent time of RUclips etc...
I had the cassette adapter but every time you hit a bump. When MP3 players came out though these adapters still worked as they plugged into the headphone jack
Dial-up is still a thing, mostly for rural areas that have yet to get better connections. And there is nothing wrong with sharing music, be it letting your friends copy your CDs, or letting strangers copy your shared files.
In 1999 when Phantom Menace came out it took me three hours to download the preview on dial up. Now I can watch four and a half hour movies instantly. I am blown away.
CDs and DVDs/BluRays are still a thing and many of us still prefer them. I definitely prefer owning the physical mediums. Streaming is convenient, but we've seen how volatile it can be and I'd just prefer to have my own library of music and film as at least an option. I admit that music is farther along than video on the ideal streaming path, but neither is really where I want them to be yet.
Portability may be an issue but there are no buffering delays and if the Wi-Fi goes out you still got music. I definitely see the appeal. But will you ever put all those CDs onto a portable device so you can take them with you? All my CDs are on an iPad.
The 2000’s were the good old days. I grew up watching Noggin and those were the days you’d go play with your friends until the street lights came on. Social media wasn’t much of a thing at the time and people talked a lot nicer. I miss those days! 😢
I still own my 80gb 2nd generation Zune. Still works, too. Shame it never got popular because it's a well made piece of tech. I'm suprised they didn't mention MySpace lol.
@@darkhandguy mine never crashed. I know they shut down their website and app to add music to it. But mine still works with the music I already had loaded on it.
I had the Zune 120. I used it between 5 and 10 hours per day. It had survived falls onto concrete, asphalt, and tile from 5 feet up. The screen didn't crack until the 7th year I had it. And it finally died during the 9th year because the lithium battery failed. Meanwhile, I heard stories of ipods breaking all the time. I still resent apple to this day, and will do my best to avoid their products =P
Yep. Justin Timberlake owns it and it’s mostly for musicians to mingle kind of like how LinkedIn is for businesspeople. Of course, it isn’t nearly as big as it was in its heyday
I still use cds/a cd binder! I keep my dvds and Blu-rays in one too. I prefer physical copies of my media, I feel like there’s always a chance digital version can be removed. I still have a stereo capable of playing cds too. And for those wondering, I’m in my 30s.
I am so glad I’m not the only one that likes CD binders! I actually still have the jewel cases to put the CDs back when somebody wants to borrow it for a while.
I still have physical CDs and a CD binder also! I still file my albums on CD because I like to have the physical copy. And actually I still have many CDs that I burned after downloading the songs from LimeWire back in the day LOL
I’m an early 80’s baby, 90’s kid and teen. I still have my huge collection of CD’s (around 5000). I appreciate digital and streaming but I have a lot of music that can’t be found on Spotify or iTunes. Especially when artist chose to not to stream, or pull their music or if an artist gets “canceled”. My collection of VHS’s and DVD’s is just as big. I won’t stop buying in those forms. I can listen to or watch whatever I want and add or subtract whatever I want unto my iPhone or Nano… yes I still one of those too. 😂🤣😂🤣
Yep, I just stopped using my iPod Touch 3 months ago cause the charger is loose and it won't charge anymore. Bought an new iPad but I have tons of CDs ripped into iTunes that are synced onto the Pad. Some of those CDs go back to the mid 90's. And like you said some of that music can't be found on Spotify or iTunes. I definitely understand your appeal for older electronics.
I had an iPod touch up until a few years ago. It was one of those that just sparkled, caught on fire and exploded. A spark went up the cord. I snatched it out of the wall before it could damage anything else. I was mad as hell. I don’t think devices explode by accident. It wasn’t even old. I bought a new one before they decided they weren’t going to make/cell them anymore or create an iOS that will support it. I don’t need iOS in order to listen to my music. I understand Apple wants us to buy new merch, but they don’t have destroy the old devices, especially in that manner. Dang this is long. I’m sorry. 🙂
Man, I still have most of my songs I downloaded from LimeWire on my classic iPod. Still listen to it almost every day! Blasts from the past that still exists in my world! lol
Does anyone remember.......? At Next in the 2006 autumn/fall & winter season, there were these two pairs of slippers with a faux Burberry pattern that came in baby blue or pink. As part of the 2007 Christmas gift range, at Debenhams there were these 3 Clarins palettes. Each palette was oval shaped, had either an amber orange, ruby red and deep purple coloured transparent oval on the top that had a slight domed effect and each compact had a different selection of eyeshadow & blusher colours. In addition to the above paragraph, who else recalls a Markwins (can't quite remember if it was from Colour Institute or Workshop) makeup gift set sold in Debenhams in Christmas 2007? Said set came with eight duo eyeshadows, one blusher, one bronzer and I think some applicators and brushes. I recall the box, the lid and the eyeshadows being a circle shape, hope that narrows it down. In H&M during the 2005 Autum/Fall and Winter seasons, as part of the Christmas gift range a pink & white makeup set. The set came with a trio eyeshadow with an applicator, a lipgloss tube and I think some pink and white hair accessories or a pink nail varnish. The contents were completed in a clear plastic oval case with a pink bow. In 2005 around Christmas time, a set from Color Workshop that had 3 eyeshadow palettes, a trio palette that consisted of 2 blushers and 1 bronzer, 2 compact mirrors with a space in each to put a palette of choice in them, 2 nail varnishes, 2 lipsticks, 2 applicatiors and 2 brushes, and I think also two mascaras and an eyeliner and lipliner pencils. I recall the casing of the palettes and compacts being sapphire blue coloured and on the box there was a blonde model looking upwards. Said model had a layered medium length bob hairstyle with side fringe/bangs, porcelain skin tone and light blue eyes. In 2012 at Argos these 4 kettles that were clear but had a tint: one was red (ruby), one was green (emerald), one was purple (amethyst). Too Faced cosmetics products from the mid 2000's that were based on confectionery. For example an eyeshadow palette called Thin Mints, another eyeshadow palette called Tropical Truffle, another called Black Liquorice and a toffee/chocolate themed one but can't recall it's name. Fruity Beauty range from Mark's & Spencer's prior to 2010 Nirvana Spa products prior 2012 Watches from Mizz mags, Bliss mags, Fila, Bootleg at Clarks, FCUK, Identity London sold at Argos and Baby G Claire's accessories products from 2013 and before aforementioned year. In Woolworths, in the early 2000's these notepads that came in pink, blue, yellow, purple, green, orange and I think red and white/clear(?). Said notepads were lined and A4, with a silver spiral in each notepads' spines. Sorry if that sounds graphic in another context. Superdrug in both 2006 & 2007 selling DVD players in pink and light purple with matching remote controls during Christmas period of those aforementioned years. Gooze slimes iPod socks Bean shaped MP3 players A couple of gift sets at Savers called Catwalk Colours that were there in 2011/2012 time Image makeup sold at Savers in 2009 & 2010 The Garden Collection from Boots (often selling magnolia, rose and lavender scented bath & body stuff) The daisy and rose themed ranges at The Body Shop in 2008 & 2009 respectively When Mark Hill had blonde and brunette items and gift sets Those John Frieda gift sets for blondes and brunettes in Christmas 2007? Anything at Fenwick's from 2015 and prior Spoilt Rotten gift sets sold at The Factory Shop in 2012 Trevor Sorbie hair stuff prior to 2012 Toni & Guy hair stuff prior to 2014 When Argos used to sell contact lenses Colourworks products sold in Superdrug around the festive season, especially in 2010 those heart shaped compact mirrors that came in pink, purple, black and teal. Moreover, each compact had a matching coloured heart shaped faux gemstone on top. Hope that rings a bell. Active, Stuf, Chilli Pepper, Jemma Kidd, Ruby & Millie, Playboy, 2true, MeMeMe, Hard Candy, Urban Retreat, Accessorize and Sue Moxley cosmetic ranges. In Bluewater in 2007, an independent jewelry stall that sold these round jewel stud earrings that came in shades of pinks and reds (under the word Love), shades of greens and yellows (under the word Energy), shades of blues (under the word Tranquility) and shades of purples (under the word Elegance). In one of the stationary stores at Ashford Outlet (I think it was paperchase) in 2005, I recall them selling mini bouquets of foam filled faux roses that came in deep pink, white, pastel yellow, pastel purple, pastel blue, deep blue, gold, silver and deep purple. Also Jane Norman, Morgan, Glitterbabes from Boots and Punky Fish? I seriously wish I had a photographic memory!
There is NOTHING fond to remember with fucking dial up internet! Limewire was the shit! Most things on this list I never had, but personal CD players? Those were AWESOME!
Zune was cool, but the problem was Microsoft’s bad marketing and late entry to music players. Also my cousin used Limewire for mix CDs, and we both used MSN Messenger especially the online video chat and games!
i use to download tons of songs from Limewire. Being a music lover there was no way I could've afforded to expand my collection as much as I did. After I downloaded the music I'd burn it to CD. I was even making CDs for family members, telling them how I could get them any song they wanted to hear and I did get them all the songs they requested.
The first dial-up I used (not the the internet), was in Jan 1971, at a screaming 11 chars per sec. The terminal was an ASR-33 Teletype machine connected via telephone handset in an acoustic coupler. Glad that's gone.
I remember a book that was similar to a Where's Waldo book. It was the same concept: looking for stuff in pictures. It was Christmas-themed. It may have even been made by the same people. One of the images was of a forest of candy canes, one with vertical stripes instead of spiral ones and a word bubble that said "Something must have gone wrong"; another one with polka dots instead of stripes and a word bubble that said "I'm not myself today"; and a small one that was pure white and had a word bubble that said "I'm too young to have stripes." That book also had a picture of elves making wreathes on a sort of assembly line, and another one of multiple Santas on different roofs, all of which had word bubbles which said "I'm not real" except for one, whose word bubble said "I'm real." I wish I remembered the title of the book. Does this sound familiar to any of you?
I still use my old CD binders. I like having my music separate from music sites so that even if they shut down, I still have my music. I really miss the pinball computer game that used to come with every computer... and the wacky phones and beepers and minichatters that had fun colors and were see-through.
So much stuff I miss from the early 2000s. - Limewire/Frostwire, Morpheus, Kazaa - RuneScape Classic. I miss that game. - Country-specific Habbo Hotels. Habbo Canada for the win! - MSN Messenger and MSN Chat. Sadly MSN Chat got abused by child predators and shut down as a result. I still remember all the different chat rooms from MSN Chat. So many "18+ Pool Party" roleplaying channels. As for pagers, we still use pagers today. I work with the elderly as a night watchman and their personal help buttons are tied to a pager system. So if a resident has a fall and hits their button, I get a page. We also have detectors on all the doors to outside on our building so if someone opens a door during the night, I get a page telling me which door is open so I can check and make sure everything is ok.
1:14 Says Super Smash Bros Brawl in the top left corner, when it's actually Ultimate being played. But the Pictochat stage did originate in Brawl, so I'll cut them a little bit of slack.
There was also the Creative ZEN MP3 player. Apple stole the patent and idea from Creative Labs, who had pioneered the mp3 player with their ZEN player. Apple & Creative used each and Apple had to pay Creative Labs. The ZEN MP3 player is better the iPod. But Apple unfairly dominated the market.
Though Apple stole many, many ideas; they bought the MP3 software compression program from the guy who invented it, and the original use was in Apple's Quicktime media players.
I still have my original Hotmail now outlook that I created back in 2004, I used as the login for my MSN Messenger, good times. I still consider the og ICQ as the best messenger service of its era.
Yes! I had a 7 digit ICQ number. I was sooo angry that MSN killed ICQ! Do you remember a program that combined the different messaging services - AOL, ICQ and MSN? I have been trying to remember the name of that.
Dialup was the bane of existence. We couldn't afford to switch right off, and my mom got mad about me always being online, so she got a cheap cellphone for the house 🤣
People talk like CD's and DVD's dont exist anymore. You can buy those things everywhere in the entire world... Stop being so first world minded. Its like you cant see outside of your own culture when thinking that we all have GB and battery enough for 500 songs on our phone and that we sit at home listening to them as if that is actually comfortable... Also a lot of streaming services dont offer specific movies so I am sooo happy I still have my DVD collection cus they never expire or are removed from service. The dynamic market is a media killer
I used Limewire until it shut down. That was the main way I was able to put music on my Ipod. It took me such a long time to get into using Spotify. Before I discovered Limewire I used to use Kaaza for all of my music downloading needs, particularly in high school. Also, I think t hat the Zune would have become more popular and lasted longer than it did if it had been released within a year of the Ipod. The Ipod had been out there for around 4-5 years before the Zune. Apple did a fantastic job of making the Ipod essentially the only mp3 player anyone needed or wanted. Also Microsoft didn't do the best job in the world of advertising them. I used to see them at like Best Buy stores and no one was looking at them. They just took up valuable store space for other electronic devices. I do wish though that I still had my most recent Ipod. I used it for such a long time. It was the first or second generation Ipod touch. I used it all the time until I got my first iphone which was the Iphone 4 because if people remember, Apple had an exclusive deal with AT&T as the only cell carrier to sell the iphone until around 2011 or so.
I used to have a Sony Ericsson flip phone. I think I still have it somewhere. Back in the early 00s when we had 56K dialup, my parents would only let me use the internet after 6pm as it was free for an hour after which then cost to use after that and then often would complain I had been on too long, my hour was up and or they needed to use the phone. While there are some aspects of the web back then I miss such as being able to have a lot of websites I would visit to find what I was looking for compared to just a handful now, I don't miss the slow speeds and not being able to use the phone when using dialup. With LimeWire and Napster you could always tell certian MP3s came from those if their filename and or info wasn't changed when shared elsewhere and the MP3s had particular finenames. There were so many MP3 songs attributed to Weird Al Yankovic floating around, some not even by him that said "Yankovich" on the filename and or artist name and you could tell where they came from originally based on the wrong name and or wrong song entirely.
My CD player, headphones and CD Binders used to take up all my room in my backpack during my high school years from 2002 - 2006. Lol it was more crucial to have that then my books.
I miss Myspace! You could talk to anyone in the world as long as they accepted your friend request and some, I still contact today . However, in 2004 people started "jumping ship" to go on Facebook instead.
Sony Ericsson cellphones were ahead of their time, especially those last phones. I myself had K510 (my first cellphone ever), G502 and Zylo. Their design was so slick.
I didn't realize that either of these things didn't exist anymore. I always thought they were all still very much the rage. Hell, even my dial up internet line still works.
My local Safeway uses pagers. Late night or early morning, only one person is designated as a cashier, but cashiers are also busy stocking, facing, etc. So there will be a button on a pedestal just before you walk into the checkout that you push. It then pages the cashier who would reset the device and start checking you out. The Rite aid down the street from it uses a dog toy in the form of one of those howling rubber chickens. The really loud ones that you can hear from anywhere in the store and according to one of the employees, she can even hear it in the restroom which is through more than 1 door and wall in the back.
Yes! I still have and regularly use a Walkman MP3 player! I prefer to use the storage in my phone for photos and don’t have much music on it, so my mp3 is the only way I get most of my music on the go
Get home from High School, hit the computer, throw on some tunes via Limewire and log into MSN Messenger and here you have a memory from the early 2000's. Apparently ICQ was a popular messaging program. I never used it but I had family members who did.
I'm the one in the passenger seat going through the binders I have, to change 1 cd in the player in my mom's car while she's driving. Been doing it for I don't even know how many years now, except more than 13.
5:25 I still use a few CD binders… to hold all my PS4 games, the entire series of the office on Blu ray, the series of Man men on CD, and more. I wouldn’t say they are DEAD. but I did ask my local store if they had any CD binders in the electronic department and they said no lol. But I was able to find a few somewhere.. maybe wal mart

In all honesty I really miss some of these things. They hold a certain amount of nostalgia to the simpler times.
Full respect to whomever could jog with a Sony Discman without making the CD skip.
I know, right?? That was why I kept my Walkman and my cassettes!
Shock proof players.
Yeah, but what about those who could could skip without making the CD's jog?

In 2005 around Christmas time, a set from Color Workshop that had 3 eyeshadow palettes, a trio palette that consisted of 2 blushers and 1 bronzer, 2 compact mirrors with a space in each to put a palette of choice in them, 2 nail varnishes, 2 lipsticks, 2 applicatiors and 2 brushes, and I think also two mascaras and an eyeliner and lipliner pencils. I recall the casing of the palettes and compacts being sapphire blue coloured and on the box there was a blonde model looking upwards. Said model had a layered medium length bob hairstyle with side fringe/bangs, porcelain skin tone and light blue eyes.
In 2012 at Argos these 4 kettles that were clear but had a tint: one was red (ruby), one was green (emerald), one was purple (amethyst).

I seriously wish I had a photographic memory!
There is NOTHING fond to remember with fucking dial up internet!
Limewire was the shit! Most things on this list I never had, but personal CD players? Those were AWESOME!
Back in the 2000s, we all wondered what the future would hold.
Now that the future is here, we all wish we could go back to the 2000s.
Zune was cool, but the problem was Microsoft’s bad marketing and late entry to music players. Also my cousin used Limewire for mix CDs, and we both used MSN Messenger especially the online video chat and games!
i use to download tons of songs from Limewire. Being a music lover there was no way I could've afforded to expand my collection as much as I did. After I downloaded the music I'd burn it to CD. I was even making CDs for family members, telling them how I could get them any song they wanted to hear and I did get them all the songs they requested.
The first dial-up I used (not the the internet), was in Jan 1971, at a screaming 11 chars per sec. The terminal was an ASR-33 Teletype machine connected via telephone handset in an acoustic coupler. Glad that's gone.
I remember a book that was similar to a Where's Waldo book. It was the same concept: looking for stuff in pictures. It was Christmas-themed. It may have even been made by the same people. One of the images was of a forest of candy canes, one with vertical stripes instead of spiral ones and a word bubble that said "Something must have gone wrong"; another one with polka dots instead of stripes and a word bubble that said "I'm not myself today"; and a small one that was pure white and had a word bubble that said "I'm too young to have stripes." That book also had a picture of elves making wreathes on a sort of assembly line, and another one of multiple Santas on different roofs, all of which had word bubbles which said "I'm not real" except for one, whose word bubble said "I'm real." I wish I remembered the title of the book. Does this sound familiar to any of you?
I still use my old CD binders. I like having my music separate from music sites so that even if they shut down, I still have my music.
I really miss the pinball computer game that used to come with every computer... and the wacky phones and beepers and minichatters that had fun colors and were see-through.
So much stuff I miss from the early 2000s.
- Limewire/Frostwire, Morpheus, Kazaa
- RuneScape Classic. I miss that game.
- Country-specific Habbo Hotels. Habbo Canada for the win!
- MSN Messenger and MSN Chat. Sadly MSN Chat got abused by child predators and shut down as a result. I still remember all the different chat rooms from MSN Chat. So many "18+ Pool Party" roleplaying channels.
As for pagers, we still use pagers today. I work with the elderly as a night watchman and their personal help buttons are tied to a pager system. So if a resident has a fall and hits their button, I get a page. We also have detectors on all the doors to outside on our building so if someone opens a door during the night, I get a page telling me which door is open so I can check and make sure everything is ok.
I've actually still got a vast collection of old mp3s of music I liked and downloaded during the days of Limewire on an external HDD.
AOL Instant Messenger was more popular than MSN Messenger around until the mid 2010!
And KaZaA lasted longer than Napster.
1:14 Says Super Smash Bros Brawl in the top left corner, when it's actually Ultimate being played. But the Pictochat stage did originate in Brawl, so I'll cut them a little bit of slack.
Suggestion: Top 20 most intelligent cartoon characters in 2000s & 2010s.
Well that sounds awful
Legitimately, I’m not sure why people hated the Zune. My mom had one and I got to use it a couple of times and it worked fine.
I still use mine found a video on here and got the program for it
There was also the Creative ZEN MP3 player. Apple stole the patent and idea from Creative Labs, who had pioneered the mp3 player with their ZEN player. Apple & Creative used each and Apple had to pay Creative Labs. The ZEN MP3 player is better the iPod. But Apple unfairly dominated the market.
Though Apple stole many, many ideas; they bought the MP3 software compression program from the guy who invented it, and the original use was in Apple's Quicktime media players.
I had a (my first and favorite) Creative Zen mp3 with the blue backlight but it was the size of a flash drive and it drained the AAA battery
My dad used to have 2 big cd binders filled with. Music and movie Cds that was our Netflix back in 2000s.
Between those and Napster, I've got a f**king library!
One thing I certainly don't miss...
52 inch Tv's that are clunky and 400 lbs.
And the computers were clunky as well back then lol
I still have my original Hotmail now outlook that I created back in 2004, I used as the login for my MSN Messenger, good times.
I still consider the og ICQ as the best messenger service of its era.
Yes! I had a 7 digit ICQ number. I was sooo angry that MSN killed ICQ! Do you remember a program that combined the different messaging services - AOL, ICQ and MSN? I have been trying to remember the name of that.
@@drfreud65 Oh i think it was called Trillian? Maybe but i totally remember that program. I used it for Yahoo messenger, ICQ , and MSN.
@@Xisle66 Yes! That's it!
I used Limewire so much back then, it put a virus on my old PC. Now I don't really need a laptop or desktop anymore, unless it is to print something.
I'm 39 so yes, this all resonates with me to the core
I like having a backup - that is why I buy Blu-Ray + Digital for movies and CD's and then rip then to digital.
I loved my Zune and used it for almost 15 years, I went through 3 charging/transfer cables
Had my Zune for 1 year and it stopped working. seen videos of refurbishing them.
Now I miss playinng V Rally 2 on my Ericsson
I used to find the 2000s nostalgic, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
Coming from the mid 2000s, I feel old now...
Hospitals, pharmacies and clinics use pagers to let you know when a surgery is over or when it’s your turn for a vaccine
How is MySpace not on this list? 🤦🏻♂️
Because it still exists
@@dread1262 a lot of this still exists. It’s obsolete, which is the point of this videos. CDs still exist too.
@@josweet3715 nuh uh
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Wow, the beepers. We also called them 'pagers' back then. "Page me."
Nice video, keep it up
iPod is my favorite. I enjoyed that era
Dail up make me feel laughing I was always fighting with my sibling; I need the line 😂
Ohhhhh the pictochat days!!! I’m old it’s over
Whatever about the 2000s i will always be a 90s kid.
Ok
I'm an 80s and 90s kid but also loved the 00s
Does being born in 97 count?
I had or used almost all of these. Damn, I'm old.
Who else remembers morphious. Just like limewire. Downloaded more viruses then songs. Those were the days.
Please do a part 2....👍
Dialup was the bane of existence. We couldn't afford to switch right off, and my mom got mad about me always being online, so she got a cheap cellphone for the house 🤣
Ummm I believe Betty White should have made the list.
Dude... she would laugh at that.
People talk like CD's and DVD's dont exist anymore. You can buy those things everywhere in the entire world... Stop being so first world minded. Its like you cant see outside of your own culture when thinking that we all have GB and battery enough for 500 songs on our phone and that we sit at home listening to them as if that is actually comfortable... Also a lot of streaming services dont offer specific movies so I am sooo happy I still have my DVD collection cus they never expire or are removed from service. The dynamic market is a media killer
I love my Zune. Thing was a brick and still works to this day.
I used Limewire until it shut down. That was the main way I was able to put music on my Ipod. It took me such a long time to get into using Spotify. Before I discovered Limewire I used to use Kaaza for all of my music downloading needs, particularly in high school. Also, I think t hat the Zune would have become more popular and lasted longer than it did if it had been released within a year of the Ipod. The Ipod had been out there for around 4-5 years before the Zune. Apple did a fantastic job of making the Ipod essentially the only mp3 player anyone needed or wanted. Also Microsoft didn't do the best job in the world of advertising them. I used to see them at like Best Buy stores and no one was looking at them. They just took up valuable store space for other electronic devices. I do wish though that I still had my most recent Ipod. I used it for such a long time. It was the first or second generation Ipod touch. I used it all the time until I got my first iphone which was the Iphone 4 because if people remember, Apple had an exclusive deal with AT&T as the only cell carrier to sell the iphone until around 2011 or so.
Limewire, Pirate bay, popcorn
11:20 ah yes the anticipation of possibly hearing those 3 magical words after - "welcome"
---- "you've got mail" --- lol 😂
I still have my Zune, in perfect working order. The only problem is that the 80gb of music in it is stunted to pre 2009, so there's that...
I used to have a Sony Ericsson flip phone. I think I still have it somewhere. Back in the early 00s when we had 56K dialup, my parents would only let me use the internet after 6pm as it was free for an hour after which then cost to use after that and then often would complain I had been on too long, my hour was up and or they needed to use the phone. While there are some aspects of the web back then I miss such as being able to have a lot of websites I would visit to find what I was looking for compared to just a handful now, I don't miss the slow speeds and not being able to use the phone when using dialup.
With LimeWire and Napster you could always tell certian MP3s came from those if their filename and or info wasn't changed when shared elsewhere and the MP3s had particular finenames. There were so many MP3 songs attributed to Weird Al Yankovic floating around, some not even by him that said "Yankovich" on the filename and or artist name and you could tell where they came from originally based on the wrong name and or wrong song entirely.
I loved my zune, I still have it works great!
I was a kid in the 2000s and my dad was in medical school and residency. He was ALWAYS wearing a pager, especially at home.
Livejournal also had its "darker little sister" DeadJournal
I don’t understand how they put MSN messenger in over AOL AIM. AIM was superior in every way.
My CD player, headphones and CD Binders used to take up all my room in my backpack during my high school years from 2002 - 2006. Lol it was more crucial to have that then my books.
Ah CD binders.. mine was always lovingly titled “the Bible” lol 🤘🏻❤️
Limewire ❤️ Rip to that and the CPUs it ruined lol
I remember when the title of RUclips videos was above the video, not under it.
I miss Myspace! You could talk to anyone in the world as long as they accepted your friend request and some, I still contact today . However, in 2004 people started "jumping ship" to go on Facebook instead.
CD/DVD binders are very much still widely available, don't exist indeed lol
BearShare was on of my favorite though
Yes I remember it
Sony Ericsson cellphones were ahead of their time, especially those last phones. I myself had K510 (my first cellphone ever), G502 and Zylo. Their design was so slick.
I didn't realize that either of these things didn't exist anymore. I always thought they were all still very much the rage. Hell, even my dial up internet line still works.
My local Safeway uses pagers. Late night or early morning, only one person is designated as a cashier, but cashiers are also busy stocking, facing, etc. So there will be a button on a pedestal just before you walk into the checkout that you push. It then pages the cashier who would reset the device and start checking you out. The Rite aid down the street from it uses a dog toy in the form of one of those howling rubber chickens. The really loud ones that you can hear from anywhere in the store and according to one of the employees, she can even hear it in the restroom which is through more than 1 door and wall in the back.
Anyone remember the MP3 players from different companies, with different designs, and different functions
Yes! I still have and regularly use a Walkman MP3 player! I prefer to use the storage in my phone for photos and don’t have much music on it, so my mp3 is the only way I get most of my music on the go
Most of these things do exist still. I bought a CD binder on Amazon
Get home from High School, hit the computer, throw on some tunes via Limewire and log into MSN Messenger and here you have a memory from the early 2000's. Apparently ICQ was a popular messaging program. I never used it but I had family members who did.
Who remembers having your CD binder in the passenger seat and looking through them while driving? 🤦
My brother had a bulky CD binder filled with CDs as well as ripped CDs. He even brought it home (he didn't want to leave it in his car) 😆
I still have mine. I just haven't gone through it in years.
I'm the one in the passenger seat going through the binders I have, to change 1 cd in the player in my mom's car while she's driving. Been doing it for I don't even know how many years now, except more than 13.
5:25 I still use a few CD binders… to hold all my PS4 games, the entire series of the office on Blu ray, the series of Man men on CD, and more. I wouldn’t say they are DEAD. but I did ask my local store if they had any CD binders in the electronic department and they said no lol. But I was able to find a few somewhere.. maybe wal mart
