Media fans turn back to CDs, DVDs and vinyl
Original: ‘If you can’t hold it, you don’t own it’: why media fans want to escape algorithms with CDs, DVDs and vinyl People descr
Fans are reviving physical media such as CDs, DVDs and vinyl records, driven by the slogan 'if you can't hold it, you don't own it'. They cite escaping algorithm-driven streaming platforms, protecting data from removal, supporting artists more directly, and retaining control over their own libraries as key reasons for the shift back to owning discs and records.
Why now: Growing frustration with streaming algorithms and licensing removals is prompting renewed interest in owned physical media.
