Interesting... our old MicroTrak's still work, even to this day! Granted, 
we're not using 'em much any more, but they were in constant on-air use until 
about 1990, when CD's started to take over. The usage gradually declined as more 
and more songs came on CD, until we "dumped" our entire vinyl library 
(thankfully, *I* was the recipient of it!) in the mid '90's.

Now it's edging more toward music on HD. I love it!
