      Yes, albums weren’t $10, even on small labels. We were dropping $20+ hoping for the best. In some cases convincing ourselves it was good, just because we spent so much on it.

        I’m pretty sure I owe my career in computers to the high seas. Napster led to irc, which led to the endless rabbit hole of many a sleepless night in the chat rooms of the 90s.

      $10? That’s a steal.

      One of the last times I just straight up bought a full CD was 1999

      Mr Bungle. California. $18

      Still one of the best purchases ever, though
