This got me down a rabbit hole, where do you guys get your mp3 players from?
Just got a thrifted portable cd player and I love ittttt especially if you already have a good collection of cds! I've thrifted nearly all of my cds !! With the exception of some hand me downs and record store purchased cds. It makes it so much more fun for me. and i want to get into burning music myself down the road. Physical media has my <3
Hopefully this is the year we wake up a very necessary case against Spotify and push for artists rights.
you have sparked a new desire for an ipod. my cousin still has his ipod classic and now i’m perusing ebay for one for myself
definitely can’t blame you for moving away from spotify. i’m moving away from meta for the same reasons. i’m probably going to do something similar to this. i have a lot of vinyls but i want to get a small cassette player. there’s an awesome youtube video called the playlistification of music (i think??) and it really opened up my perspective to how the algorithm was associating specific songs together with what it classifies as emotions. im hoping that in addition to the ethical relief from choosing an alternative route to consuming media i will also notice a different in my mood. i felt leagues better after deleting instagram so maybe this will have a similar effect.
junie23b forgot to mention that i’m also kinda hesitate of buying digital media anyways because of the lifespan of some digital media devices. not to yap or anything
junie23b did you delete the instagram app or your accounts? im considering doing the same thing! also, how do you stay in contact with all the random old friends? (or do you just let it be?)
junie23b yah agree I think it's good we have people on both fronts, those concerned about physical preservation and digital archivists
eatgraeps hopping in here to say I deleted the insta app off my phone, so now I only access my account via computer browser. It’s not perfect but it’s helped my mental health enormously!
eatgraeps i still have my accounts but i deleted the apps. honestly feel like if i don’t have someone’s phone number they probably aren’t close enough to stay in contact. anyone i am close with could get ahold of me through someone else. i still have my band account activated because promoting is hard without it but trying to move away from it
yesss and theyre super cheap and easy to use, mines a michen i got on amazon for like 30 bucks, its amazing
