It is not the case that removal of Wikileaks was only an act of censorship. Amazon seems to have some legit violations of ToS, which they have posted here.
Though it might be argued that they were quick to notice this particular violation.
I am not sure what others look at the Walkman as, but I too have very personal memories attached with the one I bought about a decade ago.
Without mincing any words, I think my Walkman, along with the racks full of cassette I have at home, taught me most of what I know about life. It was the best gift ever and I still have it preserved in my little red treasure box.
Hence, with this discontinuation of the Walkman line, it feels as if I am losing a friend, a teacher and a philosopher all at once. Even though its time may have come, I would give it a standing ovation with a sad but grateful heart as the curtains draw to a close.

Reality is catching up

I wonder where the next cure will come from.
