I will never stop buying CDs. I have a 99 Honda Accord that I will probably have to upgrade soon and I will refuse a new vehicle if it doesn't have a CD player
I’d rather have my whole collection vs what’s in the car at the time, and lack of physical space, personally.
I just sold literally all my CDs to half price books for pennies other than the ones with autographed booklets. I just can't imagine a time in my life where I'll be like "yeah I'm glad I held onto these". Vinyl more than scratches the itch to have something physical, and we'll always have access to music digitally in some form or another.
Rise Records (lol) did this for a long time but I agree. I have tons of CDs sitting in paper sleeves from various records
The only reason why I pre-ordered the CD just now is because I already have CDs of all the albums so far lol
I pre-ordered the LP last week, but have no intention of ever using it since I don't have a record player. I'll just read the liner notes and possibly hang the artwork if I like the album enough. Gotta support the guys!
Thei I once made an art project in fifth grade of about 50 of those free AOL CDs my family collected over the years. I do not remember what it was supposed to symbolize, but I remember 11 year old me being very proud of the work I put in. </shinfo>
I'm listening as soon as there's a good quality leak available, but I'm still gonna buy the album regardless.
