So don't use Spotify. Go to a record store. Hardly needs a blog post.

I was thinking the same thing. Seems unpopular opinion but in way, it’s the world we built.

Video stores vanished and everyone bought Netflix. Record stores disappear and everyone left for YouTube. Complaining now is a little late, perhaps boycotting those services would have been better.

But these services are so convenient like amazon … why is my corner store now disappearing? Progress and everyone seems to want it.

You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

How have record stores disappeared? I live in a fairly remote area, the largest town in a two hour drive in any direction, which has about 30,000 people and we have TWO record stores. Two!
