The holidays are coming and no matter if you celebrate em or not it gives me an excuse to talk about albums. I’ve been really into getting Vinyl and CD albums recently, just got Zvezda Po Imeni Solntze by Kino and The Blue album by Weezer. Anyone else have a collection or wants one? Also feel free to use the comments to discuss DVDs and Blu-ray too.

      Yeah that was definitely me for a while, recently just got a bit more “leisure money” So I decided to use it. I doubt i’ll be buying most of the albums I want lol.

      Same. As a teen I did spent all of my money on collecting but now I have greater priorities (also less space and disposable income)

    I have 1000~ vinyl records. It’s a blessing, and a curse. I really really hate moving.

    I’m not sure if I’d list it as collecting, but in my own personal taste I feel like if I purchase something, I’d like to have it physically. Like instead of ordering a movie or game electronically off a service, I’d rather own the physical cartridge, DVD, CD, etc.

    My dad has a large collection of cd and vinyl, and apparently used to have more. I mostly stream my music, though.

    I used to be, not so much anymore, mostly music. Have a friend who’s a vinyl obsessive

    physical media has style, but it requires space and more money than digital media, there’s a fine line between being an admirer of physical media of good stuff and being a vapid hoarder
