Years ago, I rolled my eyes at my partner for holding on to CDs, DVDs, and blu-rays. I want to reduce my consumeristic tendencies. After seeing how streaming and media companies control the music and movies we can enjoy, even making older work inaccessible, I admit I was wrong.

@bich Yeah, I held on to my DVD's and physical computer game library, but have all my music stored externally on digital, so I'm not worried about CD's.
Books, on the other hand, I've been making sure to buy whenever I read the digital copy and enjoy it.
I noticed laptops no longer come with CD readers! I've had to keep my partner from tossing a CD player. We've had some difficulties burning MP3s from CDs.
I have started buying more ebooks and supporting the local libraries. It's ridiculous how much the ebook licenses cost for libraries.
