Devilboy, what can I say that hasn't already been said here. Every once in a while, I come across someone who pangs to put the last nail in the coffin of CD. Perhaps there is a Technical advantage to Hard Drive Music Storage. The Technology is not the problem, it is the abysmal attitude by Computer Manufacturers towards anything High End with Computer Music Storage. In their own words, "The Computer was NEVER REALLY DESIGNED for Music Storage"! So, how long do we have to wait before someone actually DESIGNS a Computer for Music Storage? Forever? Go into Best Buy and talk to Geek Squad about High Definition Multi-Channel Music Storage. WHAT'S THAT? Hey Pal, it's just what you see! So long as I am hearing THAT, I am going to hold on to my CD Player like the only High Fidelity Life Preserver left on the Planet! Put the final nail in the Coffin of CD? What part of, "YOU ARE NOT READY!", don't you understand? Your Computer Industry is in COMPLETE DENIAL that High End Audio even exists in todays market. I presume that you are an Audiophile, Devilboy, why do you support an Industry that says you as an Audiophile don't exist? You are going to trust this Industry to control any future Standard of Sound Quality? They don't even know what Sound Quality is, Hell, they don't even know what an Audiophile is. Don't worry, Devilboy, I still believe you exist even if your Industry doesn't! It maybe small comfort, but it is the best that I can do!
