[78-L] Highway Hi-Fi (was Car Record Players)

[Ronald Olsen]

Probably a good thing we don't have this technology now. Driving while talking on a cell is bad enough. Searching for a disc, taking it out of the protective sleeve, cleaning, researching matrix numbers, etc. while tear-assing down the Trans Canada at 120 km/h could be dicey.
