I have a 2013 sedan that came with a CD player. Don't use it though since (1) I don't have any CD's and (2) I listen to the radio or Pandora via Bluetooth.

Just last summer I traded in a vehicle and the most advanced feature in it was a cassette tape deck.

Unfortunately, some neighborhood delinquents stole all my cassettes. Just to be ornery. It’s not like they really wanted my worn out 1970s cassette tapes.

If you ask me, streaming services are overrated. Service is not great where I live, so physical media (or straight up cable tv) was the way to go for a long time. Still not much better.

I wish vcr style recording were possible again. I haven't enjoyed tv nearly as much since that option went away.

My 2014 Mazda 3 has a CD player. I purchased the car used in 2017 and was so happy it had a CD player. I don't actually use it that much because I often play podcasts through my phone but I like being able to listen to my music CDs. I also occasionally borrow audio books on CD from the library. It's old school I know...

The less expensive TiVo antenna DVR you have to pay a monthly fee. The most expensive model you don't.

Other devices that allow recordings from an antennae.

I prefer a physical DVD so much that I download YouTube workouts and burn them to DVD rather than stream them. They have menus, chapters, and some even have playlists (premixes). Don't have any of that when streaming. I'm a bit fussy about what I bother to do that for, but series from Caroline Girvan (the EPICs), Sydney Summings (Summertime Fines) are worth it, as are old workouts that have sentimental value: eg Kathy Smith.
