I've been getting into physical media, both for the ritual and for the owning-and-collecting side of it, so I've been hunting for deals on CDs. Thrift stores work pretty well: having an LLM analyze photos of the bins is super quick, and the CDs are cheap, but the selection is 'not good' 😆 (also check for missing discs and scratched discs). Mostly I just want to own the CDs that are "essential" and go through the ritual with those. So I've been comparing prices across the places I like to buy from, and thought it might help other people too.
Prices checked .
