Vinyl records.
If you're rejecting online music streaming and wanting music in physical form, CDs look a lot more practical. CDs are smaller, less delicate, and don't physically degrade every time you play them. CD playback hardware needs essentially zero maintenance and is crazy cheap still.
Could it be for nostalgia? But I've seen people younger than peak vinyl get into music on records. They wouldn't have any nostalgia for vinyl.
Is it for the sound quality? But I've seen chiptune albums available on records! It would be truer to the music to load it onto a real Game Boy or something.
I like vinyl for it being big enough to be somewhat like a poster. I'm hoping to eventually gave a vinyl wall when I have my own place
I'm 30 so CDs were well and truly widespread during my formative years so it's not nostalgia for me
