A year ago I would have said mostly CD
Over the last year I've moved more towards downloads, however.............
Yesterday I bought a new car and it won't have a CD player so I expect that it will be 100% downloads from now on.
Supportact said: [my style is] probably more an accumulation of limitations and bad habits than a 'style'.
Quite a few bands I'm into are from places that make it harder to get hold of physical copies at recent prices - so I also often buyand download FLAC versions from Bandcamp.
For bands that aren't in my top tier I use streaming. I often use streaming anyway rather than the physical copies I bought - just to give bands I want to support an extra payday.
It is pretty much only streaming for me nowadays.
If I've been listening to something a lot and I feel I owe the band some money, I'll buy the CD but it never actually gets opened.
I find with some of the stuff I like on small independent labels, the album will have gone out of print very quickly and be unavailable anywhere, even Bandcamp. Then I feel bad that I didn't buy it.
Cassette tapes
Radio programs

5. Everything else. Have a family subscription to Spotify that's used every day
I will occasionally download if something really isn't available on CD.
To date myself even more, I often listen to the radio as well...
