The nice thing about today is you can hear song samples of most CDs on the internet, or listen to them on headphones at a store before buying.

Back in the day of vinyl records and no internet, lots of people were just SOL. If you didn't know anybody who owned or had heard a particular record, buying it was a "hit or miss" proposition. Many stores back then didn't offer the capability of previewing a recording with headphones. Nowadays it's the norm.
