What is a CD? Do you mean DVD? Or Blu-Ray?

Haha. All my shit is on this computer. At some point, computer, tv, phone, music, will all be combined and come out of the same machine. I read a story written in the 60s that foretold this…digital everything, two devices (mobile and home). It was called Riders of the Purple Wage by Phillip Jose Farmer. An absolutely BRILLIANT story. Crazy that he was predicting shit to a T back in the 60s that is happening now.

In the story, the device that did everything—movies, tv, internet, music, phone (video phone)—was called the FiDo.

Just like the family pet. Run, don't walk, to read it. It was in an anthology edited by Harlan Ellison called "Dangerous Visions."
