Are you an iTunes Music Store addict?
I have downloaded one free tune, paid for 3 video's, and purchased zero tunes. I still like the feel of a CD, the fact its material and not just a download. I buy CD's and RIP them, then put the CD in storage. If I am going to buy a whole CD then it doesnt cost anymore to get it on a pressed CD with all the artwork and often a little booklet. My life is not totally integrated in to Apple's digital hub yet! I have a CD player in the card, portable CD player in the workshop/garden, so the physical CD is not yet replacible. I have put my iPod and a set of speakers in the kitchen, but to be honest its not the digital dream I expected. I have to transfer tunes from my lounge Mac, my PowerBook machine and my work machine to this iPod, then my wife complains her iBook tunes are not on it (and makes me do the cooking as punishment). I have to use a ripping utility to share MY music between computers and iPods. I remember when all you did was pick up a CD and pop it in the player, no digital rights management etc.

Bear in mind that it has always been a marketing ploy to suggest that CDs are somehow 'pure perfect' sound. Yeah, vinyl does have pops etc. but it is ironic that vinyl sounds so much better than a CD. A technology that was out of date almost 20 years ago.

Marketing ploy? Give me a break. It's not like people had never heard vinyl before when CDs first came out.

No they became more popular than vinyl because they are more convenient and last longer(although ironically this latter may not be true!). Skipping tracks, no flipping the record, etc. and far smaller. |
