Music is a big part of my life. The stereo is on more often than the tv.

I'm still a bit old school and listen to cd's on a stereo system.

So what's your preference?

Modern tech, streaming/downloading etc or more traditional methods.

Or are you a purist and still prefer the warmth of vinyl?

I'm a fossil as far as music is concerned. Got loads of stuff on vinyl, quite a few cassette tapes, and loads of CD's. I transfer all those to ma P.C., but listen to quite a lot of stuff on YouTube as well

I’ve thousands of CDs in the house but no longer have a CD player except in the car. I’ve dozens of vinyls but yet i still spend most of my time accusing Google home of being a fascist because it can’t understand me

Vinyl, on a good music system.

Tangible, tactile, terrific.

I still listen to tape.

I listen to alot of 80s new synthwave music and alot of the musicians and bands making music of that style do special edition tape releases to fill that authentic 80s feeling.

So it's 2021 and I'm still buying tape albums

Can't stand any streaming services, they all rip off the artists.

Still buy and play CD's with some vinyl and recently began using cassettes again.

I still listen to tape from time to time, usually something I've beem unable to find on cd.

Does anyone still use reel to reel?

I have alot of CD's. I used to collect albums, but prefer CD's. I prefer to read the notes, look at band photographs, notes, liners etc.

A handfull are ripped to my games console & occaisionally I play them on that system.

Never streamed or downloaded. To me I would miss the physical thing of just holding the booklet & reading...

I'm a fan of holding something tangible, love to read lyrics and there's some amazing artwork on albums.

320kbps MP3s played on my PC through a proper hi-fi amp and decent separate speakers. Sits in the sweet spot of convenience, reliability and audio quality.

by the big field

Huge and ever growing CD collection, which is slowly being digitised to my own settings, with no DRM of licence issues and 100% free of adverts and social justice warrior/twatty DJ's talking over the music
