If the bits are the same, and the compression is lossless, the sound is the same. It doesn't matter what differences people think they hear. They don't exist. And the bits of a high quality streaming service, like Amazon Music HD, are the same as CD. Actually, Amazon Music UHD has more bitrate depth than CDs.
I've sold most of my CDs, except the nearly impossible to replace, the very few that aren't on my streaming service and the remasters. Streaming saves a lot of physical storage space, obviously the selection is almost limitless and the convenience is ridiculous. Everything about my streaming, even turning on my system, is voice-controlled. Plus, I can wirelessly cast my ripped CDs from my laptop. CDs are going extinct.
