  1. I put a genre tag on every track that I own but I don't use the Discogs genre information, because it is often either too vague ('Electronic') or just wrong.

    In the past I tried to be _very_ specific with genres but I gave up on that. There are a lot of good tracks that sit at the boundary between genres and I got tired of having to look in multiple different places for those tracks when trying to find them. Now I divide it up based on what I would play together in a DJ set. Goa gets its own genre tag/folder because I try to play purely goa tracks in those sets, but the chill genre tag gets added to everything from psy-chill to dub to acid-tinged ambient, because I mash all those kinds of tracks together in my chill sets. The psytrance genre tag gets added to a wide range too (full-on, twilight, uk, ...) because if I am listening to one of those then I'm usually in the mood for all of them.

  2. I used to buy CDs, but I stopped around 2010. I realized that I was ripping all the CDs to FLAC as soon as they arrived, and then never really looking at the CDs or boxes again. The box art looks great, of course, but CDs also take up space and decay over time. Now I prefer to buy the FLACs directly off of Bandcamp. I would like to think that more money can go to the artist + label that way, since they don't have to ship me anything.
