I just wanted to no who on here still uses a CD player and do you still buy CDs still as I still do because I like owning a collection of CDs I do some streaming but my favourite is still a CD player call me old fashion *smile*
But it seems everyone is streaming now and not really owning a music library anymore I mean this was what started me of in hifi 30 years ago was the excitement of going out and buying new music .
But now we have hardly any music Stores left times have changed and if you want to buy new music it’s online stores or downloading or streaming it just doesn’t feel the same to me like it used to when I could walk in to a record shop and find new stuff .
The streaming market is ok but I do feel a complete detachment from theses kind of services and you own nothing that’s the bit I struggle with when your paying £10-£20 a month for a streaming service as I look at it this way I could buy 2 albums a month and own them .
what about the future when everyone has jumped on to the steaming bandwagon and theses companies up there prices to £50 a month and you can’t afford that but at least I’ve steel got my CDs and they are not costing £50 a month. .
Maybe it’s just me getting older and I am turning into an old fart but there must be some logic in what I am trying to say
