I’ve been using an mp3 style walkman for awhile. There’s something about dedicated single purpose electronics that is so comfy. They also just work as the software is always barebones simple.
I either buy CDs (and rip 'em to .FLAC files) or just purchase the files from the artist’s own Bandcamp, because I hate subscription services. More money to the people making the music as well.
I’ve switched back to my Zune and mp3s. So over all the damn ads.
