Yes. I mean I don't get into debt to have the latest gadgets but I do like technology. Music and books are my passion and since they became digital, there is no limit to how much you can own. CDs and books take a lot of space (whereas you have to live in smaller flats because of high rent) and heavy. But get an e-reader and an mp3 player/smartphone and you can carry 1000s of tracks and books with you around. Or get a tablet and you can have both on it. And I don't have to remind you how easy the communication has become. If you live away from your family you don't have to miss them that much because you can connect with them with a click of a button.
