@glupson - A new Laser mechanism will be in the $50-$100 range (just don't buy an Esoteric drive -you're talking real money with these). With average use (2-3 hours a day), a Laser will last 10 years or so. The problem is, they may not be available in ten years.
What will become of my beloved CDs?
I have nearly 2000 CDs (DVDA, SACD, etc) and am very fond of them, or at least the music that is on them. However, it seems that music distribution is going to someday soon be totally on-line through downloads (True? When?). So, when most all of the music on my CDs is available in higher-quality on-line downloads (with artwork, I'm sure), what will become of my CDs? Will they be the shiny-silver equivalent to 8-Track tapes? Or, will they become a novelty and collectable? Should I seel them ASAP?? Any economists here???

Ikea CD shelves -- check them out. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00323364/ Am using 13 so far -- they fit perfectly in hallways. Use a Brother PT-D210 labeler to identify each letter and sort by name. But this may too expensive for some; the labeler is a hot $25 (LOL). |
