Generational differences I guess. MP3s did not become a thing until way after I was out of college. I used my weekly lunch allowance to buy a CD for that week. Most CDs of back catalog content was $9-$15. The >$20 prices weren't that common for typical releases. Of course some special release with multiple discs were priced higher.

Where did I put them? I just had stacks of them like everyone else. Now, they are just in boxes labeled CDs. Most of the time, they were in a CD player in the car, in the disc changers, in the Walkman, etc. Lots of people would toss the case, and put the disc/liners in a flip book to reduce space.

When you are into music, you deal with it. Like drummers. Where would you even put the drum set? What a silly question honestly.
