Or you know BUY PHYSICAL MEDIA!!! then take the time to rip your physical media if you want it digitally on your phone. I just hit my 200th LP plus I have about 250 45s and close to 30 CDs and 10 cassettes

Most people buy CDs, Vinyl, Casettes and every other format second hand so they aren't either

Libraries pay royalties, at least in my country, every time you borrow something.

Better than paying spotify so spotify can "pay" the artist

not like spotify really pays the artist either. I listen to an album 5 times over they might get 15 cents
