I love music and am very proud of my CD & vinyl music collection, a lot of vinyl I got from my parents cos they don't listen to them anymore (they just casually listen to the radio nowadays). I've never got into this idea of just paying to download music and having nothing to show for it, I've always had the mindset of "what if my PC dies or the internet connection fucks up during download?", I'd rather have a CD and then rip the songs onto my computer if I want and then onto an MP3 player or whatever. I love booklets with my albums, always have since I was a kid, I like reading the lyrics to songs and looking at photos. I often, when listening to albums in my room, lay down and look through the booklets and read through lyrics, production notes. Music is very important to me, everything about it. Most people just just want to listen to stuff casually on the radio or their Ipod on their way to work or whatever, that's fine.
ANyway...this is very off track of what this thread is about. Just thought I'd give my take.
Oh and as someone asked do you smell new cds / vinyls....not usually but if the booklet is glossy then yes - like Lifeblood. It's still gloosy and smells lovely
