OT The death of the home stereo system
This is just weird, trying to turn this into an analog versus digital debate...

It's all just status games. Stuff not really far removed from "my
dick is bigger than yours". Where it was big-ass HI-FI system
before, it is the gold-plated iPhone now. It's not about function,
it's about status.
That said, the idea that mp3 on any of those teeny-tiny audio
"systems" produce a sound comparable to the well-built
analog setup is completely laughable. They are just good
enough for masses and the hi-fi craze of the 1980s was a
huge overkill for that same masses.

It would be nice, in a dorm environment, where the
stereo would play play lists from more than one phone/laptop at a time
in a round robin configuration.
This could also work with bluetooth in the car.
