I have always loved listening to albums in their entirety. And I agree with the interviewed person saying that you become deeply familiar to a record when you be have listened to it several times, as opposed to just listening to a single from it.

Because this shit is always cyclical.

My CD collection, each and every single album I purchased since, what, the early 90 or the late 80s, never left me. Maybe they did not get the memo informing them they were declared obsolete and replaced by streaming? ;)

Thinking about it, I wonder how much I would have had to pay in monthly sub in order to listen to any album I purchased one time, say in 1990, and still can listen to this very day at no extra cost?

My local library just decided to stop buying new CDs and to get rid of their whole collection, same for DVDs.. I said that this is probably the worst time to do it lol.

normalize everything being able to read music files from SD cards and USB drives (which ofc includes hard drives/SSDs).

I've been ripping my CD collection (which has sat in a box for too long). It's a nice feeling getting away from streaming

Buy physical when you can. Movies, books, music. It's always better.

Sure it is... I bet Twitter said so.
