Whether it’s music, books, games, tv or movies, if you tune out most of the marketing, how do you go about finding new or old stuff? Word of mouth, new marketing (i.e. influencers/YouTubers), or do you ride the related artists/recommendations on stuff like Spotify/Last.fm/YouTube/Netflix/etc.? Or perhaps something else entirely?

I’m sure it’s a mix for everyone, however I’d love to read of some of the ways that one might not think of to find different new or old media!

    We have a few good used book/record stores where I live and I’ll just browse them every now then and find something.

    I’m a very simple person though and if the cover/sleeve/jacket/case has art that grabs me I’m prone to at least inspecting it. Sometimes my ADD will kick in and I’ll randomly remember a book or band or movie that I’ve wanted to check out and go look for it.

    In short: shiny ADD browsing.
