My husband and I took a belated 15th anniversary trip, and our little hut thing on the resort had Sonos. It was amazing and honestly life changing, so he got me a couple of speakers for Mother's Day. They're amazing - I can wake up my children by playing whatever I want, I can play white noise at bedtime, etc.
It got me thinking - is this the musical device that has changed my life the most? If not, what was? What music-related devices have changed your day-to-day life the most?
I think iPods changed my day-to-day the most short-term. I had CDs at work, in the car, all over the place, and nothing was ever exactly where I wanted it (or I had to carry one of those dorky CD books). It was so easy to have my iPod on me, and to get external speakers for it. Obviously streaming has made having digital music even easier with it being on my phone, but that pivot had already sort of been made when I had my different various iPods, if that makes sense.
How about you?
