The significant degradation of the fidelity of sound in consumer electronics can also be mentioned. Older systems sound profoundly better.

This is sadly not something I'm that well versed in. Living abroad gives me this perpetual mindset of never buying anything hi quality, in this case, speakers, vinyl etc, because it'll be a nightmare to move when I leave back home.
Although I admit it's mind boggling MP3s still dominate the land!
There was a period at the peak of the 'loudness wars' where everything in hindsight just sounds utterly terrible. RHCP's 'californication' album is so overcompressed I can barely listen to it anymore. Same with Muse and many more of that period.
Thankfully this at least has been refined.
