A best trick for me is eliminating cd player and cd... Lossless file in a battery dac..
No need to clean no need to store cd and a lower noise floor ... I begin many years ago for the files conversion ... 😊
I sold all my books before selling my house... And there is no room for more than 500 books , my core library here in a way smaller house with 2 dogs, my mother in law and my wife...... No cds... Headphone listening...
i am happy , the less we own the better...
