Similarly, there are a lot of really lazy bad maps out there that are trying to make some point about a statistic, but are really just population density maps. Give your up votes to the person that links the appropriate xkcd.

Obviously I was talking about the recording, not the album art. It's like you're going out of your way to misinterpret everything I've said that doesn't already align with the way you think. Kinda super frustrating.

Yes, I want an unencumbered physical representation of the artists work, just like you'd expect from an art print or book. I thought I was pretty clear about that. I don't want merch. I want the art. It's my money to spend to support the artists the way I choose, not an argument you can "win".

CD is dead and should be dead. Rip it and stream it, full stop. No need or reason to keep a degrading digital format when you can just rip it (full quality and store as FLAC) and stream it. That's the whole point.

This sentiment is somehow hostile to both artists and listeners. That's not the whole point. The whole point is that when I buy a thing (book, music, video), I own the thing and can store, backup, and transfer ownership as I see fit, not according to the whims of future licensing deals. I don't want to buy what is basically an NFT of the music. I want to buy the physical object. I want to be able to physically transfer that object.

You'll own nothing and like it I guess. Not me though. I've lived through too many failing companies, disappearing websites and services, hostile licensing deals that alienate and disenfranchise artists and fans, and general corporate greed. Let me buy the CD as directly from the band as possible. Let me take it from there and use whatever I choose for equipment, format, or software to enjoy it.

For the last few decades, very few people that have declared a popular media format dead have turned out to be correct.

That makes sense, but it's going to confuse anyone that grew up with the many varieties of magnetic tape available. Look on YouTube for Techmoan if you want to go on a charming deep dive into archaic and niche media formats.

What are MCs? Do you mean cassettes? No body ever really called them micro-cassettes, (those were the thing you used to record messages on an answering machine or dictation) so that doesn't really fit. Certainly not mini discs?

Sounds like an interesting premise for a musical.

This "clarification" is just even more confusing. Like do you mean, "What would be the effect on history if we could all see into the future, but only through song?" I guess I'd hope that we'd try better to stop 9/11, COVID, and Trump.

Wait, what's wrong with loud loose fitting floral print shirts? It's fucking hot out and only getting hotter. Better than some t-shirt and not totally giving up like a polo shirt. I've been wearing them unironically ever since dial-up internet and ska were still super popular. Never noticed any relative weight difference in other people wearing them.

Ok, but like half the time I say "Ow!" because I hurt myself, it didn't really hurt that much and I was just surprised. Same reaction, reacting to the event and not the actual pain. If I really did actually hurt myself, it's usually followed by either silence, obscenities, or a short silence followed by a very loud obscenity.

Likely more than just removed. I'm pretty sure that I left one too many scathing reviews of products that were defective by design or outright frauds, now I can't leave any reviews.

Pay attention this time. Nobody said they weren't different. I just said you seem to only like one aspect of the many varied aspects of the many varied Zelda games. Your reading comprehension skills are trash or you're just burning straw men to make yourself feel better. Stop being a troll.
