Do you consume it much any more? The world is becoming more digital with most things available at your fingertips and honestly I couldn't tell you the last time I watched a DVD or Blu Ray. I used to be a massive film collector but now not so much.

Maybe you prefer a library full of books v a stacked kindle or a vinyl collection v Spotify.

Books and dvds, a few of my favourite films aren't on any streaming service so I would miss not being able to watch them over and over again if I didn't have them on dvd.

I would love to take Daizy to the Charlotte Street Hotel in Fitzrovia. They have a subterranean private cinema room and we would watch John Carpenter's The Thing, on old reel Panaflex™. 🍿 🎥 🎬

Lots of books. CDs. I listen to the radio through my stereo but I'm not sure if that counts (it's not physical per se, but it's kind of old school)

I still buy books, dvds and Cds. Have a portable CD (like a discman) yo listen to music when I'm taking a break from the phone

I don't have on line TV stuff so buy shows when they come out. Waiting 2 more months for house of the dragon 2 to be released.

Absolutely nothing for me. I prefer physical books but I find the kindle much easier.

Mrs Bang Bang occasionally buys books and magazines

The Metro is the only paper I really read. A copy tends to get left in work

On a side note I think book shops are some of my favourite places. But I feel slightly guilty about rarely buying anything in them any more.

I'm like that with the Star Wars original trilogy. Special Editions a few years ago had the films the way they were intended in the 70s and 80s. Now they are out of print and not on Disney +

Not watched them in a while but I know they are there!

Of course you can come! 🍀

And getting back on thread...whilst clearing out my late mother's attic I found two 8-Track system tapes. One of them was The Surfers and the other of the The Beach Boys.

I wish I'd kept my CD's if I hear another advert for diet break up the flow of an album I may smash something.

Yay!

I love stuff like that. A guy I worked with found a tape cassette that was his mum putting a shout out on the radio for his 15th birthday.

DVDs and CDs. I have loads of books but due to problems with my eye I find it s little more difficult to read now unless I've got a magnifying gadget so I rely on audible more now.

Only reason I have the Xbox series S is it was a present, otherwise I'd have the series x as I prefer disc versions

Yeah, im old school, or maybe just old, haha

I still prefer physical books, although i do own a kindle. Although i listen to my music on an ipod, i also prefer to have the physical cds.

Part of it is that i tend to get books and cds as gifts, so for that its easier to ask for the physical things, and then they have something to wrap and give you too.

I read The Brothers Karamazov in hardback this year. Closing a book once finished is one of life’s simple pleasures.

Books - yes

CDs - would like to but someone chucked them out when we moved house and I'm sad about that.

We never had huge numbers of videos or DVDs.

We don't have anything to play that kind of media on anymore

I only got rid of my VHS player and last few videos this summer, although i hadnt actually used it in years, apart from the clock, lol

Was sad to have to throw out my some of my videos though, but was able to give the player to someone who needed it for a project

Mini disc was the tech that never truly caught on. Same with Laserdisc
