20 years ago when I was in high school we didn’t really care about listening to music because you had to be rich to own a Walkman

I think you mean 40 years ago. 20 years ago was 2003, 2 years after the iPod came out. Walkman hit the market in 1979.

And then in the 00s MP3 players were so cheap I had three just from finding them on the ground.
