Nostalgic Music Center
Posted by Jack Cook on 12/19/06 in Music Players
It’s not really portable (at 300 lbs) but it is very cool or as my great and good friend OttRot would say: "SLICK". Cyrus Farivar posted this item on Engadget last night and said:
If there’s anything that improves just about any party, it’s a jukebox. We’re not talking about those wannabe media players that call themselves jukeboxes — we’re talking the bona fide curvaceous red-blooded American ones. Well, grab your quarters, because Rock-Ola — one of the classic makers of such fine hardware — has now brought its esteemed design into the modern age, calling it the "Nostalgic Music Center."
Well, I do have to agree with OttRot, it is slick. You load a CD, an Internet connection immediately locates and downloads all the CD information, the CD is automatically stored on the hard drive and your ready to go.
