Pushing Thirty

From the Wired Listening Post:

On this day [August 17th --TS] in 1982, Sony and Philips Consumer Electronics released the first CDs to the German public, forever changing the way music would be distributed, marketed, consumed and appreciated. Now would be a great time to change it all again.

Does this mean I'm officially getting old? In any case, you can check out the full article here. It's worth the read.

I wonder if any of those CDs from 30 years ago are still readable? Now THAT would be something to celebrate!
