Where/How Do You Listen To Music?

[taylovesthebeatles]

On the way home tonight I was just thinking about how much music has evolved over the years, and I wondered just how much the methods of obtaining and listening to music have changed. So how do you get and listen to your music? Does anyone here still listen to radio, cassette tapes, or vinyl? What's the most recently you've used an "old" way to listen to music? Do any of you still buy physical copies of your music?

As for me, I only purchased an iPod three or four years ago, and prior to that I bought CD's at the record or bookstore. I also used to listen to the radio quite frequently, as recently as two or three years ago. Now, I mainly purchase my music online, either through iTunes or Amazon.com (thank you NDN for giving me free money to use there, lol!), although if I'm in a book or record store I'll sometimes pick up a CD or two, but it usually goes straight to my computer after that, where I listen to music most often. Sometimes I'll have a CD for the car, though. I do, however, own a turntable and several vinyl albums, which I find to have much better sound quality even after all these years than much of the music available digitally today. If it were as convenient as playing songs on my computer I'd probably listen to it more often. Although now that I think about it, maybe that's just a sign that I should get off the computer more often and just dance around my living room listening to vinyl albums. I like the sound of that.
