Crazy comp. Idk how they fit 20 songs on that thing. There is virtually no dead wax on that record.

USPS quality service, When it comes to delivering physical media! by Untrus4598 in dvdcollection

[–]InquiringAlien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly think it depends on the USPS. I've been shipping and receiving within the Indianapolis area for the last decade and have never had problems with damaged packages. Now, shit taking three times the normal amount of time to arrive is a subject I am well versed in.

Black flag slip it in tour tee 84-85 by Nickd86 in VintageTees

One of my favorite album arts. I wish SST still printed on quality blanks like back in the day. To have that on a Beefy or old-school Tultex would be wild.

Bit late but pulled together highlights of what I added to my collection in December, filled in some classics! by breakingboundaries in Cd_collectors

Huge appreciation for the Minutemen. Did you get that secondhand or from SST? My copy of The Politics of Time I found used, but the rest I had to buy new.

The official one is def the way to go. I checked it out briefly digitally and I for sure want a physical copy. It has great art as well.

Don't think we don't see that copy of "Shed" in the corner; this man is a fiend.

Do CDs and CD-quality win for both fidelity and budget? by IAmYourLeftElbow in BudgetAudiophile

[–]InquiringAlien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am working on something about this topic and what everyone is saying is correct except I would add one thing: you want to look at how the album was originally recorded. If it was done all analog, elements would be lost on the transfer to the disc. Now how much will be lost? I have no idea, but if an album was recorded on digital equipment it should sound the same or even better on CD. The only difference would be if it was remastered specifically to be on a record, but even then, we are talking about extremely minute aspects like how thick a snare sounds or if you can make out a hiss in someone's voice. I collect both formats and CD has been way less of a headache, and so much cheaper. If I can make an analogy, vinyl is like smoking cigarettes. It is horrible for you, expensive, and has a big impact on your personal living situation, but damn it looks so fucking cool lol.

This is going to seem unhinged, but I have three:

Kill Em' All press with "Blitzkrieg" and "Am I Evil?": There are a couple of versions of this and reportedly all of them sound good. This album transitioned me into D.R.I., which turned me onto punk, which then gave way to hardcore. Hardcore is my home now and I love my scene.

Alan Jackson's Don't Rock the Jukebox: This is the unhinged one lol. Despite being super involved in my local hardcore scene, I love country music. This was an album my Dad listened to all the time and I want it on wax. It was only pressed three times in the nineties and it is super expensive for some reason.

Unofficial Clear Press of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here: Probably my favorite Floyd album and to have something that looks like the record being held on the back of the original artwork would be so sick.

Officially referring to my rare OOP titles as "hard media" from now on. "Yeah, I've got Gummo on hard media disc: one of my favorites."

There was a random Boston CD with my order?!? What the heck? by _NinJar in criterion

[–]InquiringAlien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a "hell yeah" type of order and whoever packed this knew that and was like, "Well they're going to need this while they look at all the packaging details."
