What a sad world we now live in.......


What a sad world.....

Had to go to our local Wal-Mart for something for the wife and thought would check out CD,s while here.

Could not find them so asked where to be told they had decided to stop selling them in-store.

In fact the whole electronics section looked bare and desolate.

Pretty sure a sign of the buy online times we now live in.

I am an audiophile and have a front license plate that says so 🙂  I only stream. Well 90% stream and 1000 ripped CDs.  All the new music I listen to is streamed.  In fact I have never listened to this much new music and its all due to streaming! All kinds of new music a click or two away. Audiophile paradise I say. 
Blind listening tests on my rig proved Tidal sounds as good and sometimes better than my ripped CDs. Innuos Zen III. My ripped CDs sounded as good as my past CD transport/dac combo....PS Audio Perfect Wave Memory Player. Ended up selling off all my CDs. Nice space saver and clutter reducer. I thought I would miss my CDs, but it turns out I never even think about CDs anymore.

Searching for new music on Tidal is like shopping online for me. I avoid the crowds, hassle and exhausting shopping experience of brick and mortar stores. More time to ride my bike 😄.


Don’t forget all the wonderful notes and artist info on Tidal.  Oh yes, and often times the lyrics and photos! Much to engage with!Â
