I used to love buying CDs because...

[RIPODB]

The moment I read the liner notes and found out Alchemist produced Wet Wipes I was like

I haven't gotten a pleasant surprise like that in years

 

[Hood Critic]

...because I wanted to have a wall of CDs.

 

[ATLien]

...I like owning the physical thing AND appreciate dope covers/artwork

 

[drugxglory]

The anticipation walking home from the record store looking at the back of the cd was

Then reading the liner notes while listening

I still buy cds, i enjoy supporting the artists I like.

People kill me with the bullshyt justifications, talkin about theyd buy music but nobody makes real music anymore. fukk outta here lame you gonna tell me you havent bought a cd in five years because not one album has come out you liked? Bullshyt.

 

[unstoppable589]

used to?

if you arent copping at least 10 cd's a year then you must be a harsh critic

 

[Squirtle]

...I like owning the physical thing AND appreciate dope covers/artwork

[jadillac]

I like the smell of the linear notes

 

[call_me_step_daddy]

[Trey0'5Blue2Gz]

[DaPresident]

First and foremost...anticipation! Waiting impatiently for Tues so u can get ur fav cd

Loved reading liner notes to see who produced it, artwork, shutouts and disses

Just havin the physical copy (which I still do for my fav artists), it's just something about it

 

[diggy]

remembers having to detach the front cover from the cd holder because that tape strip up top was a bytch to undo it

 

[YeahN1ggaImmaLurker!]

I like the smell of the linear notes

Lol i thought i was the only one

 

[stealthbomber]

the smell of a fresh cd

i just copped reasonable doubt earlier today

 

[Dominic Brehetto]

Maybe its just me but i dont download albums if i plan to buy them. I dont listen to leaked songs either.

I find the complaints people have of albums funny, talking about they played out songs already and now have to skip them or half the songs are old. I just wait, buy the album, listen to it front to back no skipping and absorb what the artist did. Its the best way to listen to music.

The only people ruining music are the fans. If you treat music as disposable then thats what its going to be to you. Music is better then ever but people just dont appreciate shyt anymore.

I love going to the record store, i love the artists that put effort into the physical product. shyt i still buying random albums just for fun that ive never heard of.
