Ice from an ice tray is just better...

5 years or so ago, my family got a fridge that makes its own ice....out of thin air or  something...I don't know....anyway, since then, I haven't used ice made the old fashion way-from tap water poured into an ice tray.  That was until today and may I just say that WOW I never noticed how much better it is.  I don't know why, but ice made this way is just...better....a lot better.  It just makes me sad that so many people are buying fridges that make ice and rob them of the kind that's actually good.  Luckly, my college dorm room has a small, old (and therefore awesome) fridge that helps me help myself to have the good kind of ice.  The right kind of ice.  The only kind of ice that should be had.

Yeah, until you notice that little particles and random crap from the freezer is inside your ice cubes.

The home made touch.

I've always found the opposite to be true.  Speaking purely on the quality of the ice itself, I've always found that ice cube tray ice has a funny taste to it, and even after 5 years (similar case to you) the freezer made ice still tastes very fresh to me.

I don't use Ice anyway.

I think both are about the same. I think it's more hassle with an ice cube tray because more 'stuff' can get in it as opposed to an ice maker.

you've all been brainwashed by the automatic ice maker gnomes.  The ice tray curcaders will purge the world of your kind in the revolution.
