Technology moves on and convenience has slipped in. I mean we now have cars that brake when needed without driver input, cars that drive on their own. Motor cycle's that are self balancing, air bag jackets (don't think we will see Harley riders wearing one though), Where's the fun gone?
I am (very quietly and thank a god for separate credit cards,lol) stocking up on cd's to have for now and the future. I can easily buy at least 50 cd's from various thrift stores local to me in a day. A few years back a dear friend of mine was recovering from cancer, so as a treat I paid for her to an all expenses paid trip to the US with the small proviso that I could use her additional suitcase allowance. Luckily the luggage bag scanners paid no attention to the approx 6000+ cd's (minus cases) we had between us in our suitcases.lol
I do not know anyone who owns any cd's that is not an audiophile. I know very few audiophiles personally. When I went to audition some Magnepan's even the salesman played a CDR of music.
