Is there anyone else here that DOESN'T own a record, album, C.D, cassette or any other form of a hard copy of a record?
I have none of the above. Anytime I wish to listen to music I simply go to You-Tube.
I understand that there are collectors out there but for the average man in the street that has broadband, why collect when its all available online to listen to?
I used to have cassettes and vinyl, because I am really old. How I have CDs, because that is easy in the car. But most music i listen to now is on Alexa, Sky or Kindle. I have decided to get a piano again...
I own CD's but I don't buy more unless its the only way to get something I want. Likewise I have got a few vinyl LP's because that was the only way of getting hold of something. I either listen to music through Alexa or from my laptop, all my uploads plus Apple purchases live in icloud.
//Surely you used to have them - did you chuck them all away?//
Is that question to me prudie?
If it is (or even if it isn't..lol) I gave my cd collection to a charity shop when I got back on broadband. Realised that I could have the song AND the vid to go with it any time I wanted...
Between us we've got hundreds of cds. Most of them we've never unpacked because i mainly stream music now either onto the tv or thru the tablet and blu tooth speakers.
It was to you yes and I guessed you must have done something with them, We must 100s of CDs in the house but never ever play them - I do however play CDs in the car all the time by choice.
I have a large CD collection, I duplicated virtually all my vinyl so I sold it for reasons of strorage, and I still get a load of CD's through the post most days.
I love new music - the present Mrs Hughes less so.
