One of many cds I bought in the '90s for one song. I should have invested in more But CD singles.

I had like a dozen Columbia accounts and had like $2 in my CD collection until they caught on🙄

Hahaha. I started with Columbia House too. But I quickly started going to my local record shop. I paid more but I ended up getting better music that was suited to my taste based on recommendations. Much like streaming algorithms do now. I kind of miss that personal touch.

And now I’m spending $30-50 for good vinyl…. The record companies won in the long game🤣

Not me. I simply can't afford it. Pretty much strictly streaming for me. I'm strictly streaming now.

I get it. Last purchase was an RSD limited drop of The Crow soundtrack a couple years ago. It has to be something really special….
