I doubt whether music will disappear.

“The laundry man? What the heck is that?”

I be the laundry man in this house. With two kids we have to have a laundry man and a laundry woman.

Most brick and mortar stores will disappear particularly multi-purpose stores like sears and walmart. A few will survive where the real estate is cheap but even those will feature a lot of online ordering stations for later delivery.

I disagree about the land line. Improvements in fiber optic cable will make it more advantageous than having wireless alone, of course we will always have music. I somewhat disagree about books.

Books have been around forever and will probably still be around in the future.

The land line telephone. Fixed computers. 24 KV distribution wires across the landscape...

Hopefully, Democrats.

Common sense and decency did not make the list as they are already dead!

Music existed long before there was an industry dedicated to crushing it, and will continue to exist after that industry dies. Given YouTube and social networking, it may actually be easier to reach an new audience these days.

Music and televisoin...well, goood riddance. I have had enough of the $hit they call music and the same old tired tv shows on different channels that I have seen at least a hundred times. Good, now my husband will let go of cable TV.

Pictures, music, newspapers, television....

Thanks for posting. Coincidentally, I stumbled upon a 2009 FR thread this morning after a colleague referenced the days in the “word processing department”. This thread talks about technologies that are about to go extinct.

Interesting list and I enjoyed reading through the 130+ posts by the Freepers discussing many already-extinct technologies.

Post Office is unionized, govt backed.
It will be around longer than the cockroach and house fly.

Television will continue to prosper on live sports if nothing else.

Privacy is definitely gone. We didn’t realize that the breakthrough “big brother” advert for Apple in 1984 portended exactly the opposite of what was expected.
