I love music, you probably also love music, so how do you listen to it? I've had a fairly extensive audio cassette tape collection for a very long time and just started finding music on CD worth buying (there isn't all that much in the way of variety here second-hand in the heart of the bible belt; it's usually Christian, country, or classic rock. And I only really have a taste for the latter). I have an AGP-TEK MP3 Player (my daily driver) as well and it's fairly stuffed with a wide variety of content. My beat up "sports yellow" Sony CFD-375 is my main way of playing cassettes and CDs, but the CD player "jog dial" doesn't want to work most times
 
depends. at home - id either plop a cd in my player and listen to it while doing something else, or queue tracks from my local media player, no streaming for me!

outside - my trusty ipod.
 
Spotify, youtube, some random mp3 player on my phone, and winamp. Spoti and yt is good for finding new stuff, making playlists etc. and winamp is for the cool skins and nostalgia.

I also have a cassette/cd player, but albums I actually wanna listen to are bit expensive for me.

Open to mezzanine and OK computer donations btw.
 
I buy vinyl of my favourite songs to listen to them in the best way ::winkfelix , otherwise either using my Brain Music Player™©℗®, listening to them on Youtube and Spotify on PC and via MP4 player while I'm outside like this:

lolol
 
I don't like streaming services. I've got a 20 year old car, back when built-in CD players were still the standard. A hundred or so albums to commute to on rotation. I pray it continues to last me a long time.

Other than that I have a gigantic collection of ripped albums but I don't usually go for portable players. I prefer sitting down and listening without any outside distractions. I've floated the idea of getting a DAP but those are far more expensive nowadays. Most people just use their phones for music. Unfortunately I'm stubborn. My phone is for calling/texting. I'd rather have separate devices for any other needs. Sheesh, I probably sound twice my age. ::eggmanlaugh
 
I just download whatever songs I like and play them through VLC. Not a fan of streaming services.
 
I rely on Youtube & rarely Spotify for music but to be honest I really, really loathe the ads... hence why i call Youtube AdTube lol.

It's so bad i'm honestly thinking about making custom music CD-R's lol.
 
Basically Soundcloud. For offline music, Aimp. In the past I used Winamp, it was the best software for listening to music ever, but like everything else it got worse and worse over time.

But I listen on my computer, because I can skip all the ads. On my phone, only offline music.
 
I listen to it with my ears ::winkfelix
Jokes aside, I usually listen from either YouTube or my downloaded song files
