Another year, another column of data! 

There's not much new to add to what I said last year: the CD remains dead to me (albums by SinĂ©ad O'Connor and Eddie Grant not available on streaming services); I continue to subscribe to Spotify, TIDAL and Qobuz (that redundancy is likely to continue until Spotify finally releases its now-overdue lossless "hifi" tier); I continue to purchase album downloads because I'm #old (most from Bandcamp, and the Joni Mitchell reissues from HDTracks); and my concert-going continues to be hampered by the pandemic (although I'm quite proud that I managed 19 shows!).
