CD'S Going The Way Of The Dodo Bird!
 
I heard recently that just as cassettes replaced vinyl in the '80s, CD'S will now be replaced by MP3'S in a short time.

Wal Mart announced recently that they will be starting to stock less CD'S for the first time.
Itunes store is now one of the hottest stores on the internet.

Do you still use CD'S?

I have CD'S both for the house & car.

Ironically they said that sales of viyl albums are up 33% this past year!

Go figure!

I'm not surprised.

I just loaded all the music from my CDs to my computer, then transferred them to my MP3 player. I put all the CD's in with my yard sale stuff. I'm tired of the lack of space, and anything that hasn't been used in a year is going out in the yard sale.

Now I need to convince my daughters to do the same. They have three times as many CDs as I do.

Advice: Make sure your MP3's are all backed up to at least three different locations! .....and, make sure that they are all ripped at a high enough bit rate (256k or greater). :)
Just some thoughts. :)

I like CD'S, but I realize that MP3'S may be the wave of the future.

MP3 is format, not a medium. It is an audio compression not the actual medium you put songs on. CDs are disks. You can put mp3s on CDs

MP3s do not provide the best sound quality either

My son has a record player and a whole collection of what he calls "vinyls", which I think is hilarious. I told him we had them when I was his age, and he really didn't believe me. He thinks they're a new thang!

I think they are just going to have iTune like "stations" to buy songs
