How do you listen to music?

[Insanis]

I am listing to some new old music I bought (or in this case, was given).

After a bit of misunderstanding about my new case for my 45s, I was wondering, how many here listen to music the traditional way, on an analog spinning disc?

I have some 45s, but I mostly listen to LPs and I have a bunch of 78s too.

Along with these formats, I also have other formats, but I don't go for that Modernist digital distribution nonsense.

Radio is rarely good these days and I don't listen to it regularly, but if I hear something good on the radio, I usually try to find the album or single to own.

CDs. I used to have a record player and lots of records, but I gave them away.

With my ears.


But seriously, in normal Millennial fashion I tend to stick with streaming. I also have some CDs in my vehicle since its old enough to have a stock 6-CD changer 
While we do have a turn-table at home for vinyl, I never really got into it much.

Isn't that a bit too modernist still?  I prefer the more traditional way of listening to it live.

Decadent street performances with crowds? Depravity!

Hearing music everywhere is a brand new development. You had to listen to street performances, go to church, or go to the opera if you wanted music, not too long ago. Our constant bombardment with music is probably the leading reason music sucks.

I have the privelege of live performances every day, from the comfort of my home....no need to be bothered with street crowds.  My kids love to sing (so do I, but I wouldn't recommend others besides my children listen).  Though, I do admit, there is a certain level of depravity among the kids at times.  I do my best to keep it in check, though

Spotify on my desktop or phone.

That depends on how one allows oneself to listen to it.

That is why I asked how we listen to music.

Unless one is working in a store that pipes it through constantly, one isn't under constant bombardment. If one is hearing sucky music constantly, one should change that.

(This is why I have my records and CDs...to listen to music that doesn't suck.)

I use a good portable speaker with my phone and it is wonderful.
