Thank you for the heads up. I guess it’s still better than buying yourself a collection on iTunes thanks to it being DRM free. Will be looking on qobuz first though.
Edit: I know it’s still possible to buy CDs but it’s become much harder, especially because I’m not able to on a whim just go into the city to browse and am mostly dependent on online shops. I was being snarky because I’m frustrated that it used to be incredibly easy, without going to 10 different places, to legally acquire the music I like and it’s not anymore. I apologise.
I get mine usually at flea markets or second hand music shops in the next town over as I really love 80s rock and metal but you also get a ton of newish stuff.
Whenever I’m at a big electronics store like MediaMarkt in Germany they also still have CDs.
I also used sides like rebuy before, mainly for books and movies but I didn’t had a bad experience with that before.
Sometimes the bands themselves sell CDs on their fanshop.
Or just have your music locally. Buy it, download and run it whenever.
That’s how I use Qobuz, I mean I use the digital store, not the streaming
But still it’s a good thing to know about Qobuz
Where?
And I’m not talking about up and coming, very promising stuff on Bandcamp.
Qobuz: https://www.qobuz.com/us-en/shop 7-Digital: https://de.7digital.com/ Are two sites i know of and use for that.
7digital is american owned though, by the same company that bought Bandcamp and fired half of its staff : Songtradr
Used to be British, got bought 😢
Thanks for the heads-up 👍

Thank you everyone for suggesting sources.
In a store in real life, or a library (real life too)
Also artists/labels online stores
