Well, for starters you could start buying CDs again and then do your own FLAC rips from those.
Where do you gets CDs?
Thrift stores is a great place to start
Ironically, nowadays, it's easier to get the LP. I buy them directly at the concert, and they come with a bandcamp voucher so you can also download the album.
For more popular band, you now get very nice albums fulls of goodies, which also feature a CD
Library
Now we're talking
My library even has a streaming service that lets you download a few songs per month.
I get them from ebay. If you sort by lowest price + shipping first, you can pick up tons of music you're looking for on the cheap. Just gotta be consistent in searching, as listings come and go all the time.
Thrift shops, dedicated music stores if any still exist in your local area, and even niche online stores like Discogs, among other sellers.
