Sitting here listening to Spotify has me recalling my days as a teenager spending hours on a Saturday afternoon jamming out to all the hot music from the mid to late 90s. loved that place.

I remember the penny CD / Cassette club where said CDs and cassettes were sent via mail.
I also remember Blockbuster Music stores.

Mid 90s I was heavy in to Freestyle music(Stevie B, Noel, Johnny O,etc). It's heyday was past and blockbuster carried tons of collections. I'd spend hours at College drive and Florida Blvd locations going through them to find the best cds. Ah the days of liking 3 of 15 songs on a cd. And paying about $18 per disc. 
Now I have a Spotify playlist "Freestyle" of about 145 songs

Yeah my mom took me there a few times after repeatedly begging her. Looking back it so stylized. They had a separate listening station for each top 10 CD. There were a bunch of crazy neon light fixtures. It's not hard to see why they died so fast.Posted on 5/16/15 at 4:55 pm to LSUzealot
I remember they had this deal where you brought in five old cds and got a new one.
I brought in a Minilli Vanilli and the workers fought over it, found out later it was worth much more than a new cd.

Ours morphed into a Wherehouse Music store. Best Buy opened across the street and pretty much sealed that store's fate (this was back when you could actually find shite in BB).
Of Wherehouse, I remember going in there and gawking at the Cannibal Corpse album covers because that was the only store in the area that carried them. And all the CD's that were too expensive for a teenage boy to afford but damn I wanted them. Then the internet happened. I had the last laugh there.

Blockbuster was just a commercialized CD store with a poor selection of anything outside of mainstream music...
