When we talk about physical media, we are often only taking about personal collections but a big part of shunning the current digital ecosystem is supporting your local library. Not just for print books and periodicals but for movies, games and other medias too. Get. A. Library. Card.

In the last year, I've listened to over 5200 artists, 9800 albums, and spun over 41,000 tunes.
Tidal is my digital music provider.
I collect my listening data via last.fm and I categorized over 50% of my listening (defined as tracks played) with genres, descriptors, moods, and modes myself.

Spotify Wrapped it's just free advertising for Spotify so they can tell advertisers that traffic is high right now and advertisers should advertise. Don't give these assholes more money. They're leading the charge on screwing everything up.

This is the death throws of puritanical stupidity. Puritans were kicked out of Europe because they were lame. Europeans were partying and here comes Chastity Constance Funkiller to tell you you're going to hell. All while fooling around with Reverend Feltcher.
