Are CD's Dead?So I caught myself just the other day looking at my new CD that I wanted to listen to and thinking, "If only there were some way I could play a CD without first ripping it into the computer." Mind you, I have no less than 4 CD players in the house, including the stereo in the bedroom that I listen to everyday before work, and the large stereo in the living room with the DVD/CD player hooked up to it. And yes, I am still quite hooked on buying a "real" copy of albums, even if I only ever pull them out of the case the one time. Oops.

CDs.Not CD's.
I buy real cds too even though I only ever listen to music on my mp3 player or laptop now. It's nice to physically own something and have it as backup in case the mp3s go missing/broke/abducted by space men.

Me three. Although I am moving more into downloading. Bit skint with child and it also means I can get it sooner.
I'm going to box my CDs up soon and move to the garage as they take up space. Sad aren't I?

Been there, done that.My CD collection had filled the only storage cupboard i had, so i boxed up 80% of the ones i least listen to.
they've sat in the loft for the past 4 years as i gradually fill the cupboard again.
We've considered doing a car-boot with them, but we like having the 'proper' cd's rather than just MP3, and i can't believe second hand cd's sell for much nowadays.

...and if you keep the ripped MP3s after you've sold themthen that's as bad as ripping them from a mate in the first place.

Physical copies of music you actually own and have rights to use and resell, downloads and data they only let you have temporary restricted access to so it's hardcopy every time as the best bet.
