I remember using a rotary phone to dial in to a radio station competition. They were giving away 1 album (your choice from the top 40) per minute for an hour. After 35ish minutes of dialling I won Prince's Purple Rain on vinyl (CD was not an option). My fingers hurt afterwards, but it was worth it. I can still remember the way the dial felt as you turned it around, then the watching as it unwound back into position ready for the next number. Such different times.
