Should a CDP be left on 24/7 or shut off & on?

I read once on Audio Critique that digital eqipment should be left constantly on. Over the weekend I had to disconnect my Rega Planet Original for for 24+ hours and, frankly, do not hear any difference from when it was constantly on. This obviously is difficult to A/B.
What do you do with your digital equipment: leave it on 24/7 or power it down when not in use?

Thanks.

I left my original Rega planet on for most of the time - and I did notice a small difference after listenting to it for an hour or two after turn on. A good idea with the original planet is to have a CD loaded (not running), since then you can turn the display off completely to avoid diplay burn out.

Enjoy the original planet - it still is a great CDP.
