VHS, Cassette Player, Portable CD player, a HP 2000, and (believe it or not) an 8-Track Player. My grandpa had one in his old cars. There was some "groovy" stuff in that car.
Edit: Forgot every the original Gameboy, Gameboy Advanced, Gameboy Color, Gameboy SP, and a PS1.

floppy disks, VHS and 2D TV

2D TV? I still have 2DTV, and its only in HDTV...its such old tech now :( lol
It was a joke =P
Blu ray is so obsolete that red rey is obsolete before it has even been developed. The future lies in green ray.

3D is also obsolete. 4D is the way of the future.
Actually, you'd be looking at ultra violet ray.

Just putting it out there.



Edit:


OT:

Print media? Magazines and newspapers specifically.
Ultra violet? The film industry would never alienate the vampire fanbase.

The "most" obsolete is almost certainly vinyl records. When I was a very young child, I owned a number of them along with a (I believe) Fischer Price table. I also owned a number of Cassettes. I have plenty of movies on DVD, most notably the THX release of Star Wars IV - VI and the Alien Trilogy along with "classics" like Navy Seals.

I still have, somewhere in storage, a number of games stored on various floppy discs. I started playing games before the NES era and still have every console I've ever owned. I use a fountain pen daily and take all my notes on paper in spite of the fact that I have a laptop in my possession most of the time.

VHS+VCR, Dial-up, music on cassettes (and thus the far more involved process of creating mix tapes), Windows 98, a console made by Sega (the Genesis, specifically), cartridge-based consoles (started out on a NES), the Gameboy Color, CRT monitors.

My first console: Atari 2600
My first home computer: Trash-80 (the Radio Shack CoCo)

It used a tape recorder for downloading software.

Around that same time, I had an 8-track player to listen to music on.

Let me say that I really LOVE the 21st century. Never, ever want to go back to the 70's!!!!!! That archaic stuff will be my "when I was your age, I walked ot school both ways in the snow, wearing only sandals" speech to my kid(s) one day.
