Three or four years ago I decided to ditch music streaming and put my music budget towards buying CDs and unencumbered digital albums instead. No regrets. It can't disappear from your collection due to rights expiry if you've got the physical disk.

@zip I thought this.
Then I discovered about 10 years ago that none of my CDs from the 90s would play any more. Optical discs are less durable than people think.

@goatsarah @zip I’m curious, how have you been storing them? My collection with a lot of 80s and 90s era discs hasn’t had any failures yet. Only burned discs.
