UF8 08/03/23 7:22:55 PM #8:	this is obviously unhelpful but i usually just get stuff that is on sites like recochoku or mora (both sites partially region locked). also booth.pm, and even just gaming storefronts like steam or itch.io tbh. Oh yeah and also bandcamp sometimes, and i think i've gotten a few things digitally in the last few years on konami's shop too now that i think about it. stuff not available on those i probably just get physically, my best laptop with a cd drive is getting slower though so i haven't bothered ripping a good number of them lately tbh (i do still have EAC properly set up on it for when i do though) <cite>UF8 posted [p:975236939] in Where the ...
