    I DESPISE the subscription service based music industry of the internet. I don't want my songs locked in an account from a single platform that I have to remember the password to. I don't want to pay repeatedly. I make sure to buy CDs of my favorite albums because I refuse to not have a physical copy.

    CDs haven't gone away, many people still buy them, not as many sure because most people stream music now but there are still people like me that own a HIFI and actually sit down to listen to an ALBUM! and for this a CD is pretty hard to beat. I'll never get rid of my CD collection either, its not just the music that i can stream but the memories and importance of the albums, same reason i still own a lot of DVDs and BDs, its a real collection not a disposable thing on my phone that might disappear at the whim of a record company or streamer, also no internet needed which i think is actually something worth having.

    I've decided that I'm buying a CD player this week. I have a huge CD collection. I relied on copying them onto iTunes (and then playing them on an iPod) for most of the 2010s. It's been years since I've actually had a CD player though. For the past three to four years I've been using Spotify with a Bluetooth speaker. I also got into vinyl and bought a record player, but I'm just not feeling it anymore. I can't get over the ridiculous cost of records these days and the amount of space they take. And do I really want to spend up to $2,000 or more replacing the CDs I already have with records? Other than the larger artwork, I don't see the benefits to vinyl. CDs were the best.

    CDs pre--Loudness War - so before 1994 - are going to be the Rosetta Stone for rock and pop music.... they took advantage of the full dynamic range of CD and the lack of pink noise, pops/crackle and dynamic restrictions of vinyl. But after 1994, the compressing of all pop music destroyed their fidelity. Take Queen - the original 1986 CDs sound fantastic. Every 'remastered' version since has reduced the dynamic range, until the 2011 "remasters", also availbile to stream in "high res" are a music compressed horror show. All sounds are SHOUTING AT YOU ALL THE TIME. And there is the real rub....because streaming services are serving up the dynamical compressed 'brickwalled' digital files of everything from ABBA to Simon & Garfunkel (just take a look at Paul Simon's Graceland CD wave form from 1986 to the latest digital version....it's not pretty). You might have 24 bit at 96khz...but its 24/96 of earnumbing brickwalled Loudness War....and it's not going to go back....because humans have a hearing achilles heal - louder equals better....in the short term.... Unlike 1080p and 4k visual resolution, soncially technology has hollowed out the dynamic beauty and inventiveness in pop music....which has largely been reduduced to a brickwalled pulse/beat with a nursery rhyme hook (the only think that can compete) repeated over the top of it.....forever..... It's such a shame....unless they have the digital file from CD before 1990, no one will have heard Graceland as it was actually recorded....

    Availability in the recording industry has always been it's Achilles heal. If you bought when the album was a current or still in print, you're set to enjoy a lifetime of music. Streaming isn't that way. Streaming eliminates the expenses a label has to endure by warehousing and distributing physical product but it's always subject to licensing contract that come up for renewal. With artists now having the ability to control the rights of their masters after 35 years, the chain of ownership and subsequent legalities will mount and those contracts will often especially in the future get delayed or disputed. You'll also get that cantankerous artist that doesn't want to put their stuff out there.

    'Perfect copies' and 'zero data loss' aren't completely true. The 128kbps mp3 files people downloaded from Napster wasn't nowhere near equal to the quality of a CD. But people didn't care because the convenience and availability triumphed over the pure audio quality, you didn't need to know someone to copy his or her music.

    In a blackout, the only way to listen to music might be through a battery powered portable CD player or mini boom box. The way the world is going now, that kind of scenario can’t be discounted. I do believe extended blackouts somewhere will usher in huge demands for physical media, so its a good idea to snap up CD players while they’re affordable.

    I got my first CD from a radio contest in front of the Town Square Mall in Owensboro, KY in 1993. If you can name 2 members of Aerosmith or the lead singer I don't remember which, you get a CD. I answered the question and got the Aerosmith album Get a Grip as the prize! It was from 96 WSTO. This was my first CD and I didn't even have a CD player at the time. I also went to the dollar store and bought Busy Bee- Running Thangs I believe it was called. I think I bought a CD player a month or two later.

    Vinyl didn't outsell vinyl last year. It made more money in the USA due to the exorbitant price placed on the product. But its the same inaccurate line that's trotted out. In Japan CD is still king, and also in Europe particular Germany. CDs aren't going away anytime soon, and yes their stock will rise, as there are so many different versions of albums, mastering etc. than currently on streaming services, not to mention their physical appeal to collectors. Vinyl in the 80's and 90's was for the most part pressed on thin recycled housed in cheap single sleeved sleeves, so rose tinted glasses off! CDs, will become niche collectors territory as vinyl is today with the masses. The knowing ones have been buying used cds for sometime now as they did with vinyl in the 90's.

    CDs used to cost over twice as much as LPs, now it's the other way round. Just shows how demand dictates the amount the industry charges. I like an LP, but much prefer a CD. Much neater and easier to use, plus you can rip to your iPod/phone. There's plenty of tracks on CDs that haven't been pressed to vinyl yet (and vice versa). For the most part, those (but not everyone) that currently buy vinyl are doing so because it's the fashion. They are welcome to spend their money how they wish, but I'm happy with a music collection that predominately consists of compact discs.

    I love it. I bought over a thousand cds in less than a year bought other peoples collections for about 50 cents a cd. Kept the ones I wanted gave the rest away. And still I had to buy some out of print (burn)cds. I only buy originals, I like to support the music industry as when you buy a record. all the different compressions and formats steal from the sound quality of the recording. like taking a picture with a polaroid and taking a 10 mega pixels picture of the same subject. I have an old pioneer sx1250 with CV AT15's and AT12's and the cds sound great. I got some LP's of the cds I have as well and compare the sounds they both sound good.

CDs have never been dead nor stopped production but simply in a short hiatus compared to vinyl which actually went into 6 feet under the ground, literally dead for many years. CDs still have its magic and it is inevitible that sooner than later there will be another long season of vinyl dump, all because of shortlive hype from new generation enthusiasts.

    I've been a Vinyl hardo for the past 6 years or so as I listen to vinyl about 90% of the time and 10% CD listening while at home . I recently picked up a nice pair of vintage A/D/S L810 speakers about 1 month ago that are in showroom condition running through my vintage 1985 Yamaha R9 . Long story short I played a few records through the A/D/S speakers and then listened to a few CD's so let's just say the roles have flipped as CD's simply sound better especially through a nice set of speakers . With Vinyl prices going through the roof new and used I really haven't been buying Vinyl . Vinyl is also getting hard to find at thrift stores while CD's are plentiful for $1.99 each as I live a 2 minute walk from a very large and busy " Savers " thrift store so I can at times walk out with 10+ cds that would cost the same as 1 new Vinyl record as this alone is great !! Do I still enjoy Vinyl ? Yes I do as I own about 700 records but the CD sounds better hands down and it's also nice to be able to just hit the back button on a remote to repeat a song . People are getting caught up into the aesthetics of Vinyl records as to also buy them as collectors items and because they're not cheap people have to claim that Vinyl sounds better using every excuse in the book to justify the cost but the CD wins hands down as far as sound . Trust me as being born in 1976 I remember listening to a CD for the first time -vs- Vinyl around 1989 as theirs an obvious reason as to why the CD took over to begin with .

    People are getting sick of streaming services and digital only because theyre realizing you dont truly own anything. Vinyl may be pretty and collectable but it is getting way too expensive now, also you need to spend at least $100 to get a player that wont damage your vinyl, and spend even more to make it sound good. Cd's are very cheap to buy and basically everyone already has a player for it, dvd, blu ray, playstation, its already easy to get into it and you dont need to spend tons on a player that wont damage them like vinyl.

    I just wish sometimes that they could provide a new format with the great sound of a cd, something that doesn't scratch/skip, and you dont need internet to use the damn thing. Until then I'll continue to buy cds. 😊

    Vinyl did not out sell CD last year. Data shows that many more units of the cd were sold over vinyl. It's just that the price of vinyl albums is substantially higher and the finance and data boffins trying to spin (no pun intended) a story are using value data for their stories over number of units sold. Yep..! Even in the music industry the lies and manipulation are forthcoming to we the people!

    @@BICIeCOMPUTERconGabriele This is a typical "I have no clue and read something on wikipedia" post. It's not about the bit rate. Records sound better for the simple reason that they ALWAYS have higher dynamic rates and the "warmer" sound. CD's would be good if the Loudness War never happened and if "Remasters" wouldn't compress all music to death and suck out all Dynamic Range (the best example is Iron Maiden: Amazing on records, the original CD's sound thin, all the "Remasters" are brickwalled to death and basically unlistenable, unless all you got is ear buds and your hearing is shot already anyway from using them). Even then HDCD and SACD are far superior and SACD can rival records in how they sound. Experiencing music isn't a data contest, it's not about bit rates, it's about how it sounds and feels and in that regard, a good vinyl on a proper record player (let me guess, you never experienced anything better but Crossley crap, lol) and good speakers will always sound superior to a regular CD.

    @@ShadowAngel-lt8nw you contradict yourself. You say that records will always have higher dynamic range... Then you explain because MANY CDs have poor dynamic range. That's because of wrong choices made me people doing the mastering (loudness war)... So it's not the medium itself. It's not ALWAYS. You also 100% don't mention that the medium itself CD had plenty more of dynamic range than record.... So if proper mastering in the record studio is done, a CD will destroy any vinyl record. Listen to properly pressed music (generally classical music, or Dire Straits, Pink Floyd, Genesis albums of you are not into classical...) then do the comparison again...

    @@BICIeCOMPUTERconGabriele Actually wrong, records have a bigger dynamic range than CD, that's a given considering the difference between analog and digital, though with records the play time and the thickness of the record itself play a big role there, hence why 180 gram records sound like crap compared to 320 ones and why records with a maximum of 40 minutes sound better than those with an hour cramped into it. As for Dire Straits: The original CD pressings weren't good, except Brothers in Arms. The 1985 German pressing was and pretty much is the gold standard for CDs but the record still sounds better (and that crappy Why Worry is cut into half, making it only half as annoying) the other original CD releases from Dire Straits are infamously bad though, the 1996 Bob Ludwig Remasters are pretty good, but if you can't tell that the Records are better, i don't know what to tell you. All subsequent remasters are brickwalled to shit. I got them all. Original issues of the records, the first pressing of BiA and the 96 Ludwigs. So i can compare them. As for Pink Floyd: You open a massive can of worms there as there are so many different pressings, remasters, reissues and even difference in just the country of origin (like the Japanese "Black Triangle" being deemed the best pressing, while the european releases of the 90's (called remasters, but actually aren't) are infamously horrendous, as are most modern remasters) But Pink Floyd is actually a prime example for Records, so no idea why you mention that. Listen to the intro of One of these Days or On the Run on record over a GOOD set of speakers or good headphones (AKG or Beyerdynami, not earbuds, not beats or any other cheap crap) and the difference to the CD, specifically the stuff that is hard to put into a technical format, like the "airiness", the "warmth" and just the general dynamic display is vastly superior. Pink Floyd simply will never sound as good on CD. The fact that there are how many remasters by now? That proves it. It shows that nobody is happy with them and everybody thinks he can do a better job. As for classic music: That's the one genre that lives from high dynamic range. Again, the record format will always be unbeaten there. CD will never come close, again also mostly because there are like 5 million versions of every Mozart piece and 99% of them sound like crap.

    Imho CDs don't have a valid market. Its just digital audio on a physical media, the same audio as a streaming service. They always replicate the exact same sound. Vinyl atleast has imperfections and distortions that some people prefer over digital, but if you dont care about that then streaming is far more convenient that optical media. If you're worrying about the need for internet, having downloaded MP3s also beat CDs. CDs are pretty useless except for super niche cases.
