Do you still but CDs?

I don't anymore, I don't actually listen to much music either. When they became cheaper in the late 90's it was hard to how they would be replaced but along came downloadable MP3's.

If you don't, what was your last CD you purchased?

When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.

I used to love buying CDs. On the walk home from school I'd normally pop into select-a-disk just to flick through the rows and rows of CDs, whether I had the money to buy any or not. I built up quite the collection,however it is now just gathering dust at home


 


Nowadays I'm a religious user of Spotify. It's just so simple and is relatively cheap (the costs of an album a month for unlimited streaming) that I don't see much point in CDs

I download most of my music now. I'm sick of my ever-growing mountain of CDs at home, and when I do buy a CD I just end up saving it onto my computer/phone/tablet, so that I barely use the actual CD anyway. I make an exception for impulse buys from the second hand shop or collectors' items.

Only for the Wife, I prefer mini discs and I so had hoped they would become the 'new' popular way to listen to music. The quality perfect, recording ability outstanding but sadly media files on computers made both CD's and Mini Discs obsolete.

Believe me, CD's are pretty obsolete now.
