I own about 1000 CDs but rarely listen to them because streaming is so much more convenient. Kind of sad but a matter of fact. Getting my ass out of my Eames chair, searching my archive, putting it in the player seems so tedious in comparison. I think I’m not the only one
I only buy CDs to rip them for FLACs. The CD players i had, caused always problems after awhile. They would skip songs, or can’t find the first song. My FLACs are on an 2020 Motorola smartphone, connected via cable to my hi-fi setup. Its so much more convinient to operate.
