  • Do people still put a premium on owning a physical copy of the music they listen to?

    I do.

    I am currently embarking on a long and expensive process of replacing all the vinyl I sold just over ten years ago. I genuinely rue the day I decided to de-clutter....

    I like physical media, I like gatefold sleeves, I like inlay cards, liner notes, b-sides and the ritual of listening to records. I especially like the sound of records.

    I enjoy finding things in record shops, buying things because the look interesting and then finding out if they are or not.

    I also have Spotify Premium and it's great. I probably buy more physical music now than ever before because it's like getting a free sample - I can listen to a lot more, see if I like anything and then go and buy it if I do.
