Physical media collecting. Particularly if i have a functioning player for it. If i don't then the interest goes down the drain. That's why there's a huge focus on books with me. Pulps. That's why I've got my eyes on a copy Swords And Deviltry as we speak.

I love collecting CDs especially from thrift stores. The hunt for some rare or obscure albums or even some of my favorites is always thrilling.

Recently found the somewhat rare Daron Malakian CD art version of Steal This Album! for $6 and was overjoyed

I realize you’re likely referring to music formats/players, but…

I’ve wanted to get some Zip disks and a USB drive to just have fun with the nostalgia. Same with Minidiscs. Every time I see a Techmoan video with Minidiscs I say to myself “you don’t need them… you don’t need them…”
