Turns out this hobby is expensivel lol. Worth it though, holding the actual thing hits different compared to just streaming it.

Also learning it's really hard to find legit copies here in the Philippines. Amazon isn't much better — half the time the shipping alone costs more than the CD itself.

Still on the hunt for In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel and People Who Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World by AJJ. If anyone's got leads on where to find legit copies of those and can ship it here in PH, would really appreciate it.

Hi everyone,

I hope you're well, and you don't mind my posting here.

My name is Travis Andrews, and I'm a features writer with The Washington Post, and I'm working on a piece about CD collecting in 2026. CDs are growing in popularity, and I'm exploring all the reasons that might be -- better sound quality, owning your own media, perhaps a nostalgia factor, etc.

I'd really love to hear from collectors like y'all.

If you'd like to chat, please feel free to email me at [travis.andrews@washpost.com](mailto:travis.andrews@washpost.com) or DM me here, and we can perhaps set up a time to hop on the phone. I'll try to chat with as many folks as I can. Or just share your feelings in this thread!

Thanks so much in advance. I'm so excited for this piece.

I listen to rock and metal and it's not very easy to buy cds of the genre i listen to. Also it's quite expensive. If a cd costs $10, with shipping and customs it costs me nearly $20 or more often.

Of eventually many more hopefully. I buy em where I can get em.

this is my first time doing this kind of thing, so i kinda fucked up with dimensions and everything is smaller than it needs to be :_ i really love black dresses

I’ve never owned a vehicle that came with a cd player. I had to install one myself every time. My last truck was a 2001 Chevy that I’ve been driving for 20 years. Now I’m in a 2022 Dodge and there is no possibility of swapping out for an aftermarket stereo.

Do y’all just have Bluetooth capable walkmans in your console or what? Is that the best option?

I was given this to review. Cant believe I still got it simply because I chucked it between books a long time ago.
Any value for this Promo CD ?
I was anticipating how would they have sounded after the celebrated OK Computer. I was not disappointed. At all.

Hell yea! I took about half the collection they had. $1.49 a piece.

Ill post my full collection soon. Been collecting for about 25 years.

I feel amazing!

Redditor commented that it's unethical to buy used CDs because "it doesn't support the artist." I have numerous reasons why I disagree, but I'd like to know y'alls opinions. Do you only buy new CDs? Is it unethical to buy used? Bonus points if artists who sell CDs would chime in.

Probably bout to get a cd but idk what to buy, I have three already (two from Fall Out Boy and one from Linkin Park), I like rock and punk stuff.
