Jesus Christ. I met my ex-girlfriend through mutual music tastes. We both followed bands that are well under the national radar.

I couldn't take her to bars because she would load up the jukebox with hours worth of the music we listened to.

I'm the first to admit that it's an acquired taste, not necessarily something you want to blast throughout a bar full of drunks who don't know it and more likely than not won't like it.

This happened over and over. Got thrown out of a couple places because she would get in fights over it.

yea, i listen to death/black/doom metal, and i learned early on that although the jukebox is open to everyone, the music isn't.

Where do you even find a jukebox, that plays Darkthrone?

What I found via the experiences I relayed is that most jukeboxes will allow you to download just about anything. Too niche for an old school unit that has a fixed number of CDs in it, but not too niche for the Internet.

Makes sense. I wasn't aware those existed. Where I come from jukeboxes aren't really a thing. The only one I ever encountered was really old school and only had vinyl records from the Elvis Presley era.

i don't know if they still exist; i haven't used one in like 10 years. they probably patched them all with "radio friendly" filters
