Looking for a CD Player

Streaming is not what he is looking for, he is not into computer.

For those with working memories, it was not that long ago that I and others noted that we’re not that into streaming, don’t think it’s as good as CDs, artists not properly compensated, etc. and got lambasted for "butting in" on an "open conversation".

Hey, that shoe does fit on the other foot.

All the best,

@jayctoy ,he also said he's not computer or phone "savy" so all help is welcome...At our advanced age,it's hard for some not exposed to the tech to even comprehend how amazing streaming truly is..IMO spending good $ on a CD player is a WASTE!
 He also said they were tired of getting up & down to change music & that they like the ease of playing music on CD...These factors clearly point to streaming as the direction he should take,he only needs a bit of education...

You don't need a "computer" to stream.  Decent, small, self-contained streamers can be had for less than $500.  It's a wonderful way to listen to an enormous variety of music for the price of a single CD every month.  And anyway, the Black Ice unit I mentioned covers all the bases--a CD player, an excellent DAC, AND a high-quality streamer thrown in for good measure.  The OP gets what he wants plus the opportunity to investigate a new format.

As for artist compensation, well, that horse has left the barn.  As of 2022, CDs accounted for less than 3% of music sales.  If an elite classical label like Hyperion can finally hop on the streaming wagon, as they did last year, there must be a reason.

...and if my 72 yo, computer illiterate audiophile friend can work the Black Ice streamer (which he can, thanks to excellent personal assistance from Black Ice), anyone can.
