I really like music. I mean, I'm sure everyone does, but I, like, really like music. Since 2023, I've been collecting CDs. For a while, I had been growing more disillusioned with streaming services, and that year was when I kinda just snapped and decided that everything I listened to from now on would be from a CD.

Alongside the somewhat selfish excuse that I want to have my favorite albums forever, I also collect CDs just because I think all art deserves to live forever. That's why I use CDs in particular; they can be duplicated trivially, and wear down a hell of a lot slower than analog stuff like vinyls or casettes. They're also dirt cheap, though perhaps that's a supply-and-demand thing.

If you, like me, care about art, I would encourage you to collect stuff like this as well. CDs, DVDs, books, whatever. Art lives on only as long as we allow it to, so let's allow it to live on forever.
