I've been trying to find some Latin Jazz music which isn't on any online service, so I've been shopping around for CDs for the first time in a while. Recently, I purchased 5 albums by an artist I really like for under 20 dollars. Some copies were taken out of circulation from libraries, some from record stores.
Obviously I rip them with EAC and keep the media as a backup. I find I'm really enjoying this way of consuming music - I like the simplicity, very high audio quality and low expense. Looking at my spotify usage, I find that I basically listen to a small library of albums, although occasionally I use it to find new music.
Anyone else going back to CDs? I used Tidal for a while but the library wasn't perfect, and the MQA situation didn't help either.
