The freedom to carry your DRM free music tapes around with you and easily lend them to your friends is sadly not in my pocket.

Buy DRM free music instead of streaming it.

Not all the artists provide it. At least through legal methods.

Have that stuff looks like duplicatous audio reproduction technology and what’s in my pocket doesn’t sound nearly as good as that boom box likely does.

Also that thing in the right looks maybe like a radio and there are streaming emulators, but still no actual radios in most of our pockets unfortunately.

I had an Nokia, my last “featurephone” before I got my first smartphone, which actually had an FM tuner built-in. It used the headphone wire as an antenna as far as I recall. Quite neat, not that I ever really used it, but it was perfectly serviceable. And a great way of having music on the go in the days before streaming music was widely available.

Honestly you didn’t miss much. I used the one in my phone for a couple weeks at work until I found out I could get way better reception out of just about any dedicated portable radio. I think the headphones as an antenna thing works best when you’re fairly close to a transmitter.
