Some boombox thoughts (dragon.style repost)

[packbat]

Y'know, I don't think it's even that we like having an easy way to listen to the radio or listen to CDs in our room - I think the biggest thing we like about it is having the option to listen to music not on headphones sometimes.

Also, listening to music we happen not to have listened to in a while.

...y'know what else?

Music playing from a device that's not right in front of us feels diegetic. If we're sitting at our computer with headphones on or lying on the couch or in bed holding our phone, the music is coming from here - this electronic universe that we are accessing.

Music playing on a boombox over to our left? It's in our physical room. There's music playing in our room. That's pretty cool.
