Bought a used remastered CD of Crime of the Century at a used record/CD/DVD store in West L.A. called Record Surplus. MP3 and vinyl just don't appeal to me for whatever reason.

Last CD bought, absolutely don't remember. Probably a used CD for a buck or two, I get CDs in LPs sometimes, but don't buy those on purpose.
Cassettes, I have not bought one in 30 years. I have probably 3-4 carrying/storage cases of cassettes in a closet somewhere. Probably 300 or so tapes......I have been thinking of buying a tape deck. LPs I buy all the time, recent ones: Art Blakey~Witch Doctor, FreeForAll and Moanin' Miles Davis~KoB UHQR Transatlantic~3 PF~Meddle and Live at Knebworth 1990 Brand X~Unorthodox Behaviour Kansas~Monolith Marillion~Clutching At Straws |

It is indeed. I bought my original vinyl copy of Signals from the local chemist, back in about 1986 for £2. I thought I'd done well at the time. |

It's one of only two prog albums I've ever bought from a charity shop - the other one being "Genesis - Wind & Wuthering". It makes a nice change from the usual cheap selection of throwaway CD's by boy bands and Pop Idol/X-Factor contestants, not to mention the ubiquitous Corrs and Simply Red CD's which no one seems to want.

I've never bought a pre-recorded tape cassette, at least not for myself. I think I bought a Chris De Burgh album for my mum on cassette, Christmas 1986.
The last CD I bought - I think - was Royal Blood's 'How did we get so Dark?' The last vinyl I bought was Wasp Star: Apple Venus Vol 2 by XTC |

I've never bought music online and the last CD I bought was "Rush - Grace Under Pressure" from a charity shop for the bargain price of £1.

I still buy CDs online all the time; the last one I bought was Steve Vai's Passion & Warfare because I misplaced my original copy.
I couldn't tell you the last disc I actually purchased in a store, though. Probably a Weather Report disc or something, lol. Maybe Miles Davis at a local shop downtown a few years back.

I can't remember when I last bought vinyl or cassette (haven't joined the vinyl revolution and the only point of a cassette was to play music in a car so they are totally irrelevant now).
Last CD I bought was the Magenta 20th anniversary CD/DVD, a couple of weeks ago.
