For me, it would be wired earphones. Most people I know use wireless earphones, but I prefer the former because it is more convenient for me and doesn't require charging on a regular basis. Also, CDs! I still use them to play music. How about you?
 
CDs had gone extinct for me way much earlier. I still use wired earphones. I actually got my first airpods yesterday. And I am still running the comparison between it and my wired EP10 earphones to determine which one would serve long term.
 
I still have lots of DVDs 😅 , and our DVD player is still working, even after a long time.
Oh, that's amazing! I believe my older brother still has his DVD collection at home. I'm not sure if they're still working today. I'll ask him one of these days! :LOL:

I see. I still have some of my CDs with me. Oh, that is awesome. Congratulations on your first airpods!!! I hope they will last long. Keep us posted!
 
For me l still using the old CDs. l prefer using them because l find it more expensive to loading the content on the flash discs.
That is awesome. I am happy that you still use CDs up to this day. I still play some of my CDs, too.

I also use wired earphone and wired mouse, both are good for me, i don't have to charge them and worry about their charging level, especially my mouse i can use it all day without worrying.
Yes, wired earphones are more convenient because they do not require frequent charging. Also, I will not lose them easily. LOL. I use a Bluetooth mouse with my MacBook.

Though I prefer wireless ones, but there are times I still make use of the wired ones. Like now, I am currently making use of one.
Yes, some people find wireless ones more convenient for them. However, in terms of earphones, I prefer wired.
