Rolling Stone Says It Is The End Of Owning Music

[RJSorensen]

The old saying, "Everything Old is New Again" comes to mind. I buy new CD's and old ones. I believe that is just the way I will finish up my time here. Perhaps I am just getting old, but I like physical media, and I like CD's. I owned enough vinyl to know not to do that, given a choice. I saw a cartoon on audiophiles the other day, and the one fellow commented to the other, that what drew him to the vinyl format, was the expense and inconvenience.

 

Back in the day, they cost what they cost and there was no notion of connivence, well. you could get a record player that held stacks, but that was it. I like my music on hard drives, spinners or ssd, don't really care, just so I can find what I want and skip as I wish. Full sound with connivence is where the world will come back to, some day. Todays kids can't do anything, to rip or such is just too much work, so streaming works for them, for now. But someday someone will 'discover' CD's and they will be hot once again. I guess time will tell.
