    Yeah my teenager is hardcore Spotify but I can’t kick my 90s dj cd/vinyl buying habits and still buy choice songs on iTunes, Bandcamp, Beatport, etc - apparently this is now crazy

    But also turning a corner as people are getting fed up with streaming fees upon fees and buying music like good ole days... same goes for dvds apparently as a growing trend to digitize those collections sitting in closet, set up a home movie server on Plex/Jellyfin to detach from streaming services

    • I tried getting into vinyl. I got a little collection.

      I buy vinyl album > listen to it once > put it on the shelf > listen to the album on streaming > meh      jagara
    • I respect the collectors, though. Plus I get crate digging for weird unknown treasures. I'm just too lazy for that. Also, I have no room or money for vinyl.jagara
    • I buy digital music on Bandcamp occasionally. Mostly club stuff.jagara
    • Yeah Bandcamp is great for indie hiphop, ukgarage, ambient, jungle, weird cool stuff not seen on other platformsprophetone
    • Beatport is great for previewing new releases and staff picks and then I immediately switch to iTunes to buy bc easierprophetone
    • But also sometimes Beatport has exclusive stuff or old singles not on iTunes so will buy on BPprophetone
    • Streaming just doesn’t have the goat stuff prior to 2000s imo so just not cutting it for me, but teens are def all over it ofcprophetone
    • Funny how all old labels don't make their stuff available. There's money to be made. Purists praise this, of course.jagara
