I have a good stereo system from the mid 80s that still works like new, and newer systems I have had have fallen apart. The quality of today's electronics does not even come close to those from say 20 to 30 years ago. This is so true.

I don't mean to sound like Michael Jackson, but there's too much ignorance when it comes to environmental impact of all those circuits, batteries and casings. Lots of plastic, mercury and other lethal stuff. Indeed.
