The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD


A few days ago, one of my favorite YouTube channels did a video on the CD. This channel (Asianometry) always does an incredible job telling the story of different technologies, technical industries and/or products.

I think most of you will find the 25 minute video to be very interesting.

Honestly, I think it's all pretty good. smiley

We have LPs for the "analogue forever" crowd. There's CDs for those who simply must have 0% background noise. And we have digital streaming for pretty much the ultimate in convenience, access and variety. There's pros and cons to each system and I for one enjoy all of them.

And on top of all that, the gear to listen to it all keeps getting better and better.

I dare say we're living in a Golden Age right here, right now. 

Happy listening.
