This happened less in my generation, at least later in my teenage years, because CDs became much more prevalent.

Each song means something to them, and says something [...]

From The Huffington Post and AOL:

Ordered something from J.Crew the other day. When it arrived today, there was a brochure describing all the customer services J.Crew offers.
Hidden near the bottom was a comment that there is a 10% discount for college students in store.
