Nice troll...Re-tweeted a million times via a Botnet? Modern times...

You know, i'm buying albums i already have on vinyl on CD. Good vinyl you simply don't find in the thrift stores anymore apart from an occasional classical record. Used CD's go for 1 euro a piece.

I just gave away a 1990s Pioneer CDP with the Stable Platter mechanism to a sick friend. It didn't skip not even with a slightly scratched CD. I still use my late 1980s ES Sony CDP which i bought used in the early 1990s for very real money.

Yes I have a Spotify account but that's still compressed audio, 320 Kbps. My old ears can tell the difference. OTOH you can listen to Anton Webern all day if you want to.

Streaming? Then i would have to rip ca. 3000 CD's etc. No way.

So for me it's good old analog used vinyl, used CD's and occasional streaming via Spotify.
