Rushing to the boombox when you hear your new favorite song, to record it to cassette

And rage at the dj when they would talk over the song intro.

Which they did on purpose, so you can't use the recorded song commercially.

The modern day equivalent of this is including sound effects or a break in the music in the official youtube music video to prevent people from using yt-dlp to rip the audio directly to their playlist.

Haha but I make music so I can just use my DAW to cut out the break! Checkmate YouTube!

Rushing to it? Nah, just sitting next to it for hours with finger on "Pause".

Rushing? You mean you didn't spend whole evenings with your finger in the record button, just in case it came up?
