I used to do a semi-regular Saturday trip into Harvard Square to shop for books, music, and other things. Really just no need or interest to do that anymore. I don't need more stuff generally, don't buy physical music media for the most part, and while I may grab the occasional used book, I have a pretty large backlog and can have something on my Kindle in a minute. Mostly don't have a need or interest to browse in stores.



That was a big part of it; I recall heading home from school and stopping in at the used bookstore, grab a interesting looking novel for 25 cents, read it on the way home, toss or donate it.
