I’m 40, and when I was a teenager, EVERY band had CDs. And I know a lot of music has shifted to digital. So much so that I heard Best buy stopped selling CDs. Presumably because nobody buys them.

So I wonder what musicians sell besides t-shirts and posters at concerts. Do the kids have ANY CDs? Do they buy mp3’s? Do they just use pandora and spotify? Do they even own their own music?

I’ve given up on trying to understand the lingo. Other generations lingo sounds stupid to me, but still understandable based on context.

I have NO idea what a skibifibi toilet is…sounds like a toilet after some taco bell and untalented jazz, but maybe I can try to understand their thought process on media consumption.

    Nope. I wouldn’t have a use for it, even if I was a super fan. I listen to my music with my jellyfin server, or stream from the commercial platforms. I think I still have some CDs somewhere, and could play then if I really wanted, but it’s just a pretty dead format for me.

    As far as I know, the money is from selling additional stuff, like merchandise. Some people like vinyl, but I personally don’t care.

    Skibidi toilet is a animated series with actually pretty good quality where people with cctv cams for heads are at war with people who’s bodies are toilets. Haven’t watched a lot of it but I can kinda see why the kids like it, hits similar as star wars the clone wars but without a mega Corp behind it.
