79% Physical CDs

I just bought 2 CD players, a great one for my main room, and a not-so-great for listening in bed with headphones. I still buy records, especially sets : last was The Complete On the Corner Sessions (Miles David), a great pleasure. I mainly order my cds online. Vinyls 0%, loops not, a little Bandcamp. No subscription.

If I could afford a laser turntable, I would buy more vinyl records

The Laser Reads New Audio Information: The same audio information is engraved from the shoulder to the bottom of a record groove. Audio information read by the laser is 10 microns below the shoulder. Therefore, the laser is picking up audio information which never been touched or possibly damaged by a needle. It plays the virgin audio information on the groove without any digitization.

The laser reads the audio signal with much greater precision than any needle, making the laser sound quality quite similar to the original music on the master tape.

Just read a bit about it. Seems pretty complicated, with multiple lasers scanning groove, and edges, so that the tracking works. Only works with black vinyl, and the record has to be super clean, otherwise you get chatter. Oh well, at least it's analog, right?

good question

I suppose that spending $10 per month on Spotify counts as "buying"

with regard to hard media - can't remember the last time I bought a CD but have bought some bad-ass vinyl from Amazon in the last year

peace

Haven't purchased vinyl in ~15yrs, CD's ~10yrs. Both formats are redundant!

I get my music mostly from small Youtube musicians and online crud . I mean, I've heard the -other types and stuff and already have bought some of their collections ....

without sin! That's how you got to do it, dog. Anything goes! Even syn!

No and yes to the 3rd option.

CD's are still WAY overpriced. And considering all I have to do is go online or prime, it's a waste.

I buy music on Bandcamp and Google Play, as well as in CD format.

I like collecting music albums and still want a huge wall filled with my own CD collection of fave artists one day. So yes when I can afford to do so.
