The end of physical media is neigh

The day is quickly approaching where the only thing we can physically hold in our hand is when we're standing in front of a white porcelain fixture.

Not in my house.  And I’ve got an oPPo and a 4k video player that’s barely been played, not to mention some 300 films on dvd, Blu Ray, and 4k. 

Not all CDs sound like crap.  Some are really well recorded for the format intended.  But I prefer physical media myself.  But will likely add streaming sometime. Only have so much time in the day to listen. More important things to do in life.

@agwca  If you’re considering adding streaming my strong advice is to just do it.  I too went into it kinda reluctantly about five years ago and my only regret is that I didn’t do it much sooner.  The freedom to explore worlds of new music, much of it in hi res BTW, has increased my enjoyment of music listening more than anything else in my lifetime by a large margin.  I’ve never had so much enjoyment as an audiophile.  Discovering incredible new music is so much more interesting and rewarding than just playing the same stuff over and over.  That’s fun as far as it goes, but it doesn’t compare in the least to finding tons of awesome new music, and I hardly ever spin a CD anymore.  If you’re on the fence, jump!  Just my $0.02 FWIW.

Thx, will probably start streaming soon.  Keep the favorite and often played discs and sell off the rest.  Would also make a room more friendly rather than looking like Steve G's place.  Don't know how he lives like that.  Going to be one heck of an estate sale!
