How many of you still go to record stores?
 

I'm not sure if I have made this thread before. I was wondering if there are other TPWW members that still go to record stores and purchase physical copies (vinyl, CD etc.) of their favorite music.

There's a used CD store here I go to every now and then if I want something new to listen to in my car without spending more than $8

I go for a wander around HMV and Fopp when in Manchester, but most of my music buying is done on Amazon, where I can get my CD's cheaper.

For pure music store, the choices here are far and few. It is either Karma (where a CD costs $22 or more) or local music stores who, because they are hipster, are just as ridiculous on prices and faggotry.

i buy records at least once a month, whether it be through different distros or going to record shops around here. love digging through bins of old records looking for gems.

Outside of a mall, don't think there are any dedicated record stores around where I live.

Most of my CD collection came from the local Ames store at the time or from stores that sold a bunch of other things.

I'm planning on investing in an Audio Technica LP60 turntable and restarting a small collection.

i don't even think there is a music store in my town anymore

2015.

Paying for music.

It's called torrents u guys...

I tape songs off the radio

I want to do this. I always fancied a collection like John Cusack had in High Fidelity. But I don't know which ones are the "gems". Like what would you consider a gem?

The nearest one I know of is in Jackson. Haven't been in one in years since the Sam Goody south of me closed down. Even then I rarely bought music.

that's all on personal preference. i'm not trying to put together a collection of titles to impress anybody but myself. some of my favorite finds have been a copy of xiu xiu's fabulous muscles with a limited edition screenprinted sleeve, a nearly mint copies of elton john's goodbye yellow brick road and hum's you'd prefer an astronaut.

I havent really for about 13 years now, although one day hope to get into vinyl etc.

Torrents are soooooooooo 2001

Popcorn Time?

I record stuff of my xm radio by using its fm modulator and an mp3 player with fm record capability. Pretty cool actually.

Oh and April 19th is go to a record store day.

Yeah, I have no idea what you just said Droford. I use Maxell tapes. Then I put the tape in my Walkman to listen to the latest Def Leppard songs.

i went to RSD last year. it was a fucking madhouse, and this was in my small hometown. i can only imagine what it's like in the city.

I usually order new stuff from amazon but whenever I want random older albums, I go to the record shop. I like buying CDs.

Oyyyy good goy!

I went to Fopp today and bought The Decemberists' What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World, along with Season 1-4 Justified boxset, which was going cheap.

I sit by the radio all day with a tape recorder to get my favourite music.

Better question Is who has even went to a record store.

Fuck yeah! Nothing better than listening to taped off the radio songs on your Walkman. I love the new auto rewind function. What will they think of next?

YES! Auto rewind is the greatest invention ever!

This.
Nothing like going into an old second hand record store hunting for treasure
