Those things were the analog Napster, the physical Limewire, so amazing.

what are those things?

I hit both of them pretty hard. I just kept filling out those cards for the deals and not buying anything at full price and they never stopped sending me the CDs, I paid something like $20 for 150 albums. A bunch of kids at my school did that and we would just make copies of everything and trade them to each other. I got a call from collections one time and told them good luck getting any money because I was 16 years old and they never called again haha.

1. God I feel so old right now.
2. No, I did not.

We didn’t do the CD ones but we did the Encyclopedia one. It was helpful pre world wide web.

I did. My mom thought it was an excellent deal and we maintained our subscription for many years, actually. They’d give you deals on cds periodically, so yeah my parents were all about it. They also did the movie one.

I probably have 200 CDs from them that I paid maybe $300 for. Then MP3’s came out.

I did. I loved music and it was cheaper than the record store. It only seems dumb now because of the internet. The big downside of it was limited choices, but it also got me to try some new music out. It was one of those things every comedian made fun of, yet participated in.

Lmao, no. I remember just writing any name on those forms as they never verified. I think I took them for about 60 CDs in total

We didn’t have many CDs even after CD players had become pretty popular so we had Columbia House. We would typically the the 3 CDs that you bought for a special price from a catalog and nothing more. It was helpful in getting a decent collection pretty quickly though. Almost all of my CDs as a kid came from them.

You mean those old ass CD subscriptions?

CDs? I started with Vinyl!

lmao, i never knew anyone dumb enough to sign up
