I use an old MP3 player I got for 5 bucks at a clearance sale and some headbuds from the dollar store. Converted all of my old records, tapes, and CD’s to mp3’s. Any new music I add comes from the public library on CD, and then converted to MP3 when I get home. I also use “youtube” to discover new (old) music, so I know what to get from the library. I also grab a CD I’ve never heard of, from time to time, hoping to trip and stumble onto something great.
