09-03-14: Charles1dadI'm trying to make a general point and has nothing to do with Grannying or cd vs music server.
Grannyring's decision to return to a CD player is a move I'm sure he'd not consider "half empty". He seems happier than ever since ditching the computer. Really though, this 1/2 full,1/2 empty applies to neither format. There's a ton of music available with both and we will choose what fits us best.My CD jazz collection just keeps expanding with beautiful recordings I keep discovering. Good luck and happy listening to all regardless of your preferred path.
Charles,
One can use failures for excuses in not trying or successful results for inspiration. Basically the old Nike slogan, Just Do It!
Just tired of people making excuses not trying computer audio because Joe Blow had problems. How about the success stories?
