by creating a mass culture
Today It's not just Sirius XM gnawing away at terrestrial radio's audience. Newer cars allow well-to-do drivers who happen to have smartphones the ability to stream Internet radio and music-discovery sites through their dashboards.

The technology has changed. Instead of vacuum tubes, transitors were used. This has enabled radios to change from large furniture-like objects to something that fits in a pocket.

The celebration of technology is common to both periods. In the 1920s, autos, the radio and refrigerators changed people's lives more than computers and the Internet have today. From 1919 to 1929, the number of cars more than tripled, to 23 million.
peoples lives were affected because they could'nt live normally and had to run to the underground escape route and listen to the radio to wait for the escape route
