Local Record Stores are giving fans who buy 'THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT' vinyl variants a printed note Taylor Swift wrote for Record Store Day!
''Happy Record Store day!! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for welcoming The Tortured Poets Department into your vinyl collection and your life. It's my goal to create a memento you'll want to keep forever, and I hope you'll feel that with every turn of the page of the lyric book, every secret thought poured into this work. It's an honor to be able to trust you with my feelings. Love, Taylor.''

Maybe it's due to where I'm looking but I really wish record stores still carried CDs by the bands I love, whenever I go into one I barely see any pop punk or emo and maybe it's because we are still sorta in this stage where it's more like the fashion and stuff that has made a bigger comeback but I really wish I saw stuff by Pierce the Veil or The Story So Far etc.
Back when I was still in highschool (so like maybe 2015 and so on) I would see tons of pop punk CDs, I bought a lot from those places but now all I see are the super popular bands that I would expect to see and I have seen a few new albums from bands I like.
I used to see record stores sell all of the Pierce the Veil albums but last time I went there all they had was their new album and some goes for Sleeping With Sirens.
I used to have a big collection of CDs by the bands I loved/love but now I don't have them anymore so it kinda sucks walking into a record store and seeing nothing I want and I prefer to buy them in stores.
A while ago I went on a trip and the record store I went to had Circa Survive and I lost my marbles! Sadly all of the CDs were gone tho :(
Anyways my predictions are that physical media is gonna make a comeback and that includes CDs becoming popular again, if vinyls can become popular again so can CDs.

High Fidelity, Then and Now
High Fidelity then starred John Cusack as an immature, self-absorbed record store owner who, because of a recent, painful breakup with his girlfriend Laura (perf. Iben Hjejle), went on a tour of self-discovery through conversations with all of his ex girlfriends.
