Long before Bittorrent and Piratebay, we "borrowed" music by recording it onto cassette from the radio. Once dual cassette stereo's came out, we could even copy tapes from our friends... I remember going to Kmart with my friend Brad and we would each buy a tape, then go home and copy each others.. Good thing I was underage and it was like 30 years ago. Times have changed, but people stealing music is pretty much the same. Ya know.. Not only do I still have several of the Records I bought as a kid, I still have several radio programs on cassette.
Something else I remember about music is how I wanted to be a DJ so bad. We had a console stereo that I would sit in front of, play records, and announce the artist into the microphone between songs.. I have a recording of me doing this in the early 80's when I was like 10 or 11, where I even read ads from the newspaper as commercials.. what a dork I must have been.
