It takes prep, and also, you’re probably not going to truly “cold turkey.” I like music, for instance, and there’s literally only two ways to get music now - streaming or 🏴☠️, so you would have to make plans for that. I’m ok with 🏴☠️ so I’d be set with that for a good while. I also like books, retro games (which I already have a large library of), and physical hobbies that don’t require internet - hiking, etc.
I will not just lay down and accept intrusive Idiocracy levels of ads though. I will literally “cave man” the rest of life if necessary.
Do modern bands still print CDs? I haven’t bought a CD in so long that I dont think I even own one anymore. I have bought directly from several bands “bandcamp”/other pages and that was cool. Got mp3, FLAC, artworks, lyrics, etc for less than the price of a CD except every penny went to the band.
I love modern tech and don’t want to see it destroyed but I will gladly go insane like a mountain man if they try to find out how many ads they can serve before it causes siezures.
Oh actually you know what you’re probably right 😬 I know modern bands do records still, but I think the last CD I bought was Tranquility Base in like 2016. Bandcamp is great!
I’m totally on board with you. I hate ads, especially when they interrupt music – and double especially when they interrupt music and the ad has its own music that completely shits up the mood!

There’s more than two ways to get music. I’m looking at a stack of CDs and records right now.
