Sure, it's colloquial for "await developments". But is "stay tuned" obsolete, like dialing a phone, watching a clock's hands, opening a windwing, all that analog stuff that no longer exists in a digital world? How many of you tune a radio dial? What else is obsolete?

Opening a windwing? Never heard of it. Must have gone beyond obsolete into extinction.

P.S. What the hell are you writing that your spellcheck corrects window to windwing? :confused:
 
It still applies with radio, you're tuning it whether by dial or button.
Every now and then I see a newer car with manual windows and I'm like "they still make those?" Apparently they do.
 
Years after recording studios went digital, musicians still go in to "cut a tape," which mashes the terms from two old technologies.
 
I own and use a polaroid camera and a typewriter.

Analogue isn't dead, its just underused. In fact around here, old school cars are seriously big business.

I'm updating the DVD drive-thru window with popcorn. Stay tuned.
