For me it is less about the sound and more about playing music in a way that is devoid of any real software or internet connection.

I don't have to worry about ads, updates, connections, etc. Just other analog things like a bent needle or dust on the record.

It's like camping. No I don't like sleeping on the ground specifically but sometimes it is worth doing so to be somewhere else: disconnected.

I really like the comparison of analog media with camping!

Since owning a CD player i use my CDs more now than i did in 2010. Unfortunately Discogs shipping fees mean i can't buy most of the things i want

CDs are digital media, not analog. I actually mentioned them in a reply to this guy, that they are both cheaper and better audio quality because they are digital.

You are technically correct. I should have said physical media
