Hello forum
Quick question . Do you still buy cds? I have a huge collection but my daughter says I need to move with the times and upgrade to downloads and streaming . I have such a huge collection of cds - I haven't the heart to part with them . A lot of money I've spent over the years . I was in HMV store today and I saw they still sell a lot and they still cost around a tenner . They can't be that old fashioned then ! I don't like downloads because I like to be able to hold a cd in my hands. Where's the fun if everything becomes digital! A lot of you on here are younger than me so maybe you can offer me your opinions! Ron. |

I've never bought them before tbh. I don't see the point in them anymore actually.

Yes, but mostly get them as gifts.
I have a few I haven't listened to yet from quite a while ago. |

Only of the albums that I really entirely love. Nothing can compete with the booklets

You cant give CDs away at auction. Vinyl on the other hand is HUGE and makes top $$

Up until about 2012/2013 but then my parents cars had the connect your phone feature so I used that mostly.
And I was kind of giving a Bose speaker when my parents divorced as neither seemed bother by it so I used that in the house. Last edited by Will.; 28-08-2017 at 04:49 PM. |

in the good old vinyl days which seem to be making a bit of a recovery, the records sleeve was amazing, with all the sleeve notes, lyrics and art work. It was as much a part of the purchase as the music.
Cd's on the other hand, the booklets are crappy so i just go with download these days, although i have a huge cd collection. |

It's funny how vinyl is making a comeback . We got rid of our collection years back - A decision I since regret . Whatever next! it'll be vhs , admittedly vhs quality isn't very good though! R.

Wow leather can't imagine any of my old CDs selling for that! Although I do have a signed Katherine Jenkins cd that might be worth a bit . R.

I buy CDs.
Downloads I don't really like. I have loads of vinyl too from what my family bought over the decades. Which I have now slowly claimed. Love the singles, albums and CDs in my hands. You really feel you've got something as opposed to downloads. I'm managing to build up a good history of music across what my family have liked over the decades too. It's for me really fascinating. |

I buy cds a lot but then again I often buy dvds too so I'm probably not the one to ask as I'm quite out of the times
