Machine offering notes to people in street? (8,6)
I believe the answer is:
personal stereo
'machine offering notes to people' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'street?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'street?' could be 'st' (abbreviation) and 'st' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for personal stereo that I've seen is " portable cassette player".)
