Do anyone still have or collect old CD's, cassette's, vinyls or 8-tracks?

Was wondering if anyone still collect any of the old media or have any of the old media players floating around. I threw away my CD's but I still have my old cassettes and Walkman. I have not installed it but I do have an 8-track player I am going to put in my '62 Impala. I am in the process of going through the tapes that are not labeled with random recordings on them

I have THOUSANDS of cds, tapes, and vinyls. I just preordered the new Beatminerz on vinyl last week and bought some cds yesterday. You should have never threw away your cds. It's a market for them now and many of them are valuable.

I plan on getting into the vinyl game once I can find a place to put a record player. I don't have my CD's no more, but still all my tapes. I have like 5 or 6 in my strong box that have value to me and I do not want anything to happen to them tapes especially

Wherever nikkas need to be told on
CDs and vinyl.

I love streaming but one big downside is that songs can get pulled without much warning, songs can inexplicably not be available in your region, songs have been re-recorded, and songs have been changed due to samples not being cleared.

It’s underrated having an original copy of Ready To Die or 3 Feet High and Rising that you can call your own and play when you want and it’s the version that you first heard that made you a fan.

Sure it takes up space and there’s some inconvenience but imo it’s worth it.

I have crates of vinyl and I was going through my trunk of cds. I hadn’t looked at it in years so I was surprising myself with some of the albums I had in there lol. The Smack dvd with Jeezy on the cover. The away team album called National Anthem, a fresh never opened Dem Framchise Boys album :dahell: also an unopened Paul Wall album. Man I had money that I didn’t know I had lol. I was just buying shyt!

I was going to invest in a vinyl player but then I realized it doesn’t change the quality of sound much so it’s pointless
