Collecting CDs are just as stupid as collecting cassette tapes. You get the same content you would with a digital file, but you get the physical product that is worse in every way to vinyl. All forms of CD packaging are garbage because they will break or tear after just taking them out a few times and you're better off putting them in a CD wallet, and if you were going to do that, you might as well have just burned your own disc from a digital file. Things on a jewel case just break off randomly, and the ones in the paper sleeves are even worse because of how much of a bitch it is to pull the CD out, and if you don't damage the sleeve, you'll probably damage the CD, and if you didn't you probably will the next time, or the time after that. Digipaks are the least bad, but not common enough, and their sizes differ too much. Vinyl has a bunch of annoying things too, but at least they still have reasons to exist.

>worse in every way to vinyl
I exclusively buy vinyl records but even my biased ass can recognize this is BS.
>>
I have hundreds of CDs stored in boxes in the attic. I think they’re the best physical format because of compact size, relative durability and sound quality, but theyre obsolete. They offer no advantage over a lossless digital copy imo, theyre just more expensive, take up space, require dedicated hardware and are less convenient to use.
I get why people like vinyl despite its obvious drawbacks, ie, big art, its a cool and fascinating bit of old technology, that high fidelity music can be reproduced electro-mechanically with a tiny diamond needle running over a vinyl platter with wiggly grooves and all that stuff. I don't get any of the same feelings for CDs really.
Having said that, the only physical format I still buy is CD but only in circumstances where I can't find a high enough quality digital version to dl, almost always 2nd hand from Discogs, then they get ripped and stored away with the rest.
>>
>>130662772
-highest quality accessible physical media format
-cheap
simple as. you can go on discogs and get an entire artists discography for like <20 bucks, and it's much easier to losslessly turn into digital files than a vinyl.
I'm a files kinda guy and I'm not anti vinyl, but CDs are just the most practical option if you wanna go physical
>>
CDs are the best because you can just pop it in and press play. I can visually scan my entire collection in seconds. Plus, I can rip them to MP3s and play them on my ipods.
>>
I have some things on cassette because there were good things released on there for dirt cheap and it sounds fine - don't have a tape deck at the moment though. CDs are good if you can get what you're looking for cheaply. Vinyl is good if you got into it 15-20 years ago and managed to buy things before the market was flooded with posers jacking the prices to retard levels. Judge the thing you're actually buying if you're buying on vinyl - old records make a lot more sense than anything released during the digital era. All of them are flawed containers. Having a collection is a burden, a big waste of space, and frankly kind of gay. If you treat it as anything other than a practicality - I listen to these things consistently for the music and not the container for x, y reasons, etc. - it's over for you. All collectioncels need to be culled.
>>
>>130663234
>If you treat it as anything other than a practicality...
The youngfolk never got the chance to enjoy an actual record store. I agree with you, but there was always something fun about shopping for tunes that you can't substitute with streaming methods, so buying/collecting it because it comes in a particular box is the best surrogate we've got until that source finally dries up.
>>
>>130663329
>there was always something fun about shopping for tunes that you can't substitute with streaming methods
The fun part was its cultural relevance, even when it was niche or a subculture. What we have now is anachronism. There is no return to the time where these things were relevant, ubiquitous, and new. You can open or shop at a cool guy record store in the 2020s and it will never be what it was in the 90s - ditto movie rental places and anything else that's from a dead medium. Treating it as a practicality is a matter of necessity. Cosplay is, in fact, a fucking stupid waste of time. Even still, owning music in a container isn't completely pointless, and digital everything did turn out to suck ass.
>>
>>130662772
literally, i only buy cds anymore from a few small artists that i like or if i really like an album that doesn't have a vinyl release. cds are really cool when you're first getting into music as a teen but now i just have a big ass cd collection that i never even touch anymore. the cd experience can be easily substituted with streaming and pirating since it's all just data, but vinyl is a more unique experience.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the smartest one in our friend group but I don't like to think that because it makes me think that it's the reason I never moved forward in life.

Recently I bought my mom a little Panasonic CD system with two speakers. He's not tech savvy but she knows how to work it. She usually shits on me whenever I buy her anything because "you're wasting money" but this is the one rare time she was actually excited. I was thinking how I haven't heard her play her music, she likes but dislikes the Alexa, and remember she had some CDs. The next day she basically had it on all day. I also got get some Loretta Lynne and Willie Nelson greatest hits CD.

I think the last vinyl I got was Jack White's No Name or The Voidz - Like All Before You. Or maybe Future Island. The last CD I bought was Paul McCartneys' new The Boys of Dungeon Lane. I think I will keep buying CDs because getting the vinyl sometimes is like $40 and I cant justify it when the CD sounds better in some ways and is easier to rip.
>>
>>130662772
I've bought a few CDs in the past few years, mainly because I wanted to experience the feeling of owning some cool CDs I wouldve liked to have bought 20 years ago. They just sit in the wardrobe and I've never played them since I don't really have a cd player. So just for novelty purposes I guess.

If that were the case then every record store would go out of business. It's not CD sales keeping those stores open. Vinyl may not be your cup of tea and I understand why, but a lot of people do enjoy it.

But they won't because of the persistent demand for vinyl over the decades. CD collecting, meanwhile, is a genuine fad.

>CD collecting, meanwhile, is a genuine fad.
That's just stupid, CDs do tens of millions in volume even in the face of streaming and piracy and this is increasing again.

The fad was streaming and piracy, both are being clamped down on and normies can't into it any more because each generation for the last three, has been less tech-savvy than the last.

You think some zoomer is going to discover Bittorrent all by themselves? Alphas? Yes a few will, but the bulk can barely hit themselves in the face with their iPads.

This is why you should fuck off to reddit. With this much snark, you'll for right in. No one cares about your little CD collection bro, but just to piss you off I'll go even harder.

We should divide society into CD lovers and everyone else. We should make a new law to have armed cops go into every CD lover's homes and smash their collections right in front of them and collect all the shattered pieces and reforge them into blades to torture the CD lovers with inside deathcamps after they get arrested. We need to start a new Holocaust for CD collectors.

You're overdoing it. It's a little much. Nobody gets this mad over somebody having CDs, not when the best Labubu costs $22,000 and Jake Paul sells a $4 million Pokemon card lol.

A troll has to be subtle, it has to work with the zeitgeist but trip somebody up at the same time. You're hitting this shit like a Paki shoving a baseball bat into a British Rose.

>>130666833
>>130667600
Again with the Reddit snark. I know this might be a foreign concept to you, but some people actually want to PLAY their CDs, and that involves opening the case and taking out the CD. CRAZY right? And you know, sometimes when I'm feeling a little extra adventurous, I might take a look at the little book they might come with. Oops! One of the cover holders broke off, I got a little too adventurous there. O.O

If you get this bent out of shape over someone making a thread about CDs, you're either insanely privileged and self-absorbed, or you're an underageb& that has no actual problems to be mad about. I bet you're just some gen alpha retard that discovered CDs from their older cousin and now it's your entire personality. I guess that would explain why you're so triggered.

It's a durable item, they go up in value, and the CD doesn't need some Internet connection or anything else to "go."

CDs are also uncensorable, it'd be possible to release a CD in a totally underground manner and bypass the Internet which is increasingly tuned for censorship. The only barrier? Lack of CDs and CD players. But really there are probably enough out there to satisfy the demand, already.

I grew up in the vinyl depression era, so only had CDs and I was never poser enough to get into vinyl once it started being hipster. So yeah, I have no idea what goes on there. A foreign country.

>>We should divide society into CD lovers and everyone else. We should make a new law to have armed cops go into every CD lover's homes and smash their collections right in front of them and collect all the shattered pieces and reforge them into blades to torture the CD lovers with inside deathcamps after they get arrested. We need to start a new Holocaust for CD collectors.

CDs are an online-only medium since you can’t buy them at stores anymore. Zoomers and people in general want to go to a record store and browse albums in person. Only vinyl gives you that since buying online is impractical. Even cassettes have a stronger brick-and-mortar presence compared to CDs.

Your local record shops don't sell CDs?

Vinyl literally gets worn every time you play it and dumb hipsters made it so records cost like $50 now while CDs go for around $8. As a long term collector of physical music, I am always buying the form that is cheapest and stop buying the current trendy one. I was buying records when CDs were $25 and records were cheap. That has flipped.

>even if a jewel case breaks you can easily get a new case to put the cd in
You can only get shitty lightweight ones now. They don't make the good sturdy ones like they used to in the 80s any more.

>you're trying to pretend there's no demand for vinyl.
because there literally isnt. demand is a psyop by the few remaining american record labels. cds still outsell vinyl worldwide. in the usa they came up with record store day as a way to inflate the dismal sales of vinyl. only people ever into vinyl were boomers because they grew up with it. like i said before cassettes outsold vinyl then cds came along and killed vinyl entirely. i read a survey and 70% of people that buy vinyl dont even have a record player

Picked up some CDs at Walmart last week, dumbass. Try again.

>>130674363
Which Taylor album did you buy?
>>
>>130674874
Picked up 2 Deftones albums, a Green Day album and a couple Metallica ones. Thank you for asking, you disingenuous asshole.
>>
>>130673474
No, they don’t. At most they either have a tiny rack in the back with promo/compilation shit no one wants, or nothing at all. In America vinyl is king and most shops refuse to stock anything else.

>>130674363
Now try with anything that isn’t top 40.

>Picked up some CDs at Walmart last week
did you just start collecting last week? lol the wal mart near me has two tiny shelves and maybe only 40cds. just a couple random new greatest hits by billy joel, toby keith & alabama
>>
>>130674981
The main point is that other dipshit said nowhere sells them. Last time I checked Walmart is a pretty big retail chain so...
>>130675056
Been collecting for decades now. I found a Siamese Dream CD in there last month, I believe. Replaced my best up copy. You have to dig but there is good stuff in there
>>
>>130675212
You’re not going to compete with streaming or local record stores with compilations from classic rock bands. Read the room.

Cus i want to. It's compact, sounds good and i can read the booklet. Faggot

>Sometimes I feel like I'm the smartest one in our friend group
It happens because of some psychological shit and not being able to know exactly what the other person is thinking, but I'm sure there's stuff he's good at that you wouldn't have a clue about
As long as the friendship is healthy and you're both happy (sounds like it is), don't dwell too much on it
>>
>>130675305
Who said they were? I simply said that Walmart, one of the biggest retailers in the world, sells them. Proving that other anon wrong
>>
>>130674969
Wow, that's completely gay. You have the most pedestrian taste in music in the world, to such a degree that you can buy physical media at shartmart

That's not the entirety of my music taste. Very nice projection though. You could have a career in IMAX.

I didn't read all of that, but I grew up with CDs. They were expensive, so I could only buy one every other month. It was always such a rush to get a new CD. I still feel it. That's all. It's just nostalgia.
>>
>>130673438
Plenty of vinyl shops sell CDs, dumbass
>>
>>130675786
So are you gonna call me a hipster for ordering some God & Ice CDs off Discogs?

Just let people buy what they wanna buy. Sheesh. No need to make an ass out of yourself.
>>
>>130676453
They've been at it for days. Coping. First it's the whole nowhere sells CDs angle then when you prove them wrong they want to act like every band that's been listed isn't talked about here weekly. Not sure what makes vinylfags so miserable but I hope they get over it. It's not that important.
>>
>>130676259
I’ve been to every record store in town. They don’t. This isn’t the 00s anymore.
>>
>>130670056
How long did it take you to build that?

Sounds like your town sucks and your experience isn't universal

because I don't trust piracy motherfuckers turn crusty mp3s to wav and flac and expect people not notice better off buying the real disc and ripping it myself
