Have you ever picked up an album from the library?

Yup, that's how I used to get music way back in high school. My library actually had an enormous selection.

Libraries still exist?

>>70090470
yes, why ?

>rock

>>70090470
many times because i'm a cheapskate and don't wanna download

apparently it's not illegal to rip them when you borrow em.. which is kinda weird in a way

lots of nice jazz and classical albums though. some of them are heavily played though, my rip of mingus ah um cracks a bit in a song or two

I got Thom Yorke's The Eraser since it's not on Spotify.

Now that I think about it, it would be interesting to see how these collections are curated in the average library. Like do they just have one guy who knows music real well and orders stuff for them? Because the library near me has a huge selection of stuff that nobody other than music geeks would know about.

Some decent stuff, Black Sabbath - Paranoid, Carly Rae Jepsen - Emotion, Piñata, Donuts, and a few others are what I remember seeing today.

I'm guessing all donations. Either from patrons or businesses dumping their bargain bins

Yeah back in the day. Mostly weird stuff, all the well-known stuff was always checked out

our university library is stocked by requests from the music department

>>70090550
pop, rock, rap, and jazz are the only genres

My library has a pretty decent selection, so yeah

I used to borrow Broken and The Downward Spiral from my local library.
