The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD

A few days ago, one of my favorite YouTube channels did a video on the CD. This channel (Asianometry) always does an incredible job telling the story of different technologies, technical industries and/or products.

I think most of you will find the 25 minute video to be very interesting.

Great video. I bought my first CD player in Germany in 1984. A Sony and I have been a fan of the format since that day. Yeah I still have CDs and 3 CD players and a transport. Ahhh the good old days of the compact disc.

I just recently got Cary CAD300 player for VERY CHEEP. I like it the way it is without upsampling or tube output!
