@soix Oh brother, are you being anal today. I brought up what I see as limitations of a medium and you take it oh so personally, like I attacked you and you only.

Seems to be a pattern

*Riding out on my high horse*

@soix 

You are the one that brought up your “perceived” limitations of streaming and brought this off topic, not me.

And here's the OP's query:

Any recommendations on CD players in this price range?  I only have music CDs so don't need anything that can do more than that.

Tell me how it's me that took this off topic?

Just wait for the other members to chime in later. I can wait.

All the best,

Well, from the OP…

I don't have a streamer and hate to say never

That doesn’t sound like someone who’s at least not open to new info along with getting thoughts on CD players versus a separate transport and DAC.  Nobody here is trying to force streaming down the OP’s throat but rather just provide some info that might be useful down the road.  All was fine until you decided to unfairly diss streaming without even knowing what you’re talking about.  Added info is rarely a bad thing here, but unsolicited disinformation is counterproductive and should be called out as such.  And yeah, I’m sure looking forward to other folks’ thoughts on CDs being a better way to discover new music than streaming.  Ha!

Music Threads here and in various forums.

Haven’t forgotten … family, friends, co-workers, strangers, etc etc.

"unfairly diss streaming".....you talk like you're dating and defending her honor. Your chivalry is misplaced. 

"not knowing what you're talking about" ....yes, I do, and you're starting to sound a lot like freddy.

"unsolicited disinformation'....give me a break. This is not your personal sandbox and goes contrary to what you said earlier about having a say in something.

"ha!"....meh

All the best,
