Headphones

yes because personally my hobby isn't just about the listening part (but that's probably still the most enjoyable thing though :P)

i like the whole experience of deciding what to download (only my alltime faves get a spot in the collection), and i think it's fun to organize my music library as well as my listening setup. also with unreleased/archive stuff, if there's no official cover art i like to add a custom one based on the vibe lol. overall i find the whole ritual relaxing, i feel like it adds enjoyment to the listening experience and turns it into a more mindful/active pastime instead of being passive consumption.

for the times when i want passive consumption, i can just open spotify and listen to whatever which is still pretty often haha but it's nice to have a distinction between and balance of both though
