Collectibles vs. The Planet

Soundboard raised the alarm on the environmental impact of vinyl LPs earlier this week. Even CD packaging seems excessively plastic these days, but it's not easy to give up the pleasure of unwrapping a new disc to discover its colour and hold the accompanying liner notes/artwork in your hands. Surely, musicians appreciate the tactile benefit of producing a clutchable version of their songs too. What's a semi-head-out-of-sand music fan/musician to do?
