    Death of the CD

    in Someone Else's Song

    Posted

    Actually, I think this might be good news for independent record stores. There'll always be a market for physical media, wheter it's vinyl or plastic discs. People just don't want to buy a disc for every single song they hear on the radio; that's why the cd single disappeared a few years ago. If Walmart and Best Buy discontinue their cd sales, people might return to the smaller stores.

     

    I for one still enjoy buying cd's, but they usually end up unused in my closet, because most of the time I already downloaded a lossless copy.

    How well traveled are viachicago members?

    Removed Andorra, Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Monaco, Portugal and Turkey from the list. Last year, on a trip to Pécs (Hungary) I nearly touched the Croatian border, but never crossed it.. [edit] Nevermind, Cryptique already removed Croatia [/edit]
