   I’ve been going through my own personal revival of physical media - mostly audio. I don’t miss streaming at all.

   Every CD I buy gets ripped to a NAS that hosts the music behind Navidrone where I can stream to my vehicle using Play:Sub (thanks to Tailscale for enabling all of this to work for me!).

   I am just so enamored with being able to get the best of both worlds - my own music, anywhere.

   I do wish I could figure out some sort of recommendation system to find new magic, though. Obviously not to steam new/unowned songs, just to point me in a direction next time I go to the store.

      Seems like CDs are redundant here though, given that they get digitized anyway.

         I have a home audio setup to play them on, don’t worry :).

         Also, buying directly from artists (when you can) is a good way to support them.
