Are CD players dead

Mine currently is.

Here's a great article from Audiostream that asked some industry leaders where they thought computer audio is going:

Glean from it what you will.

I am at the RMAF and will listen to some steaming music, and computer music and some really good CD players.

More to come.

I don't think there's any question about computer audio and where it's going , but the OP asked if CD players are dead . In the early 80's they said that CD's would eliminate the need for LP's , and CD sales went wild , but nearly 30 years later LP's are still around and probably always will be . There is room for more than one format .

Just read that LP sales in the UK were at 223,000 in 2010 , compared to 119 million CD sales . There not dead yet .
