Who else plays CD's?

a CD is a box wrapped in another box...funny as it was, I respected Lorde for selling her latest album in a box that contained a download code instead of a CD

I won't download music, to me its junk compared to CD, Like a vinyl nut job, I get a woody playing 1 disc at a time in its entirety.

if an artist won't sell CD's I can still stream them, I do stream a small amount still.But actual CD's are now my goto.so much more enjoyable.

the disc is just the box your file comes in

it's more akin to the sleeve a record comes in

assuming you download the right file, it will be literally identical to what's on your CD... because your CD is just a box that has that file in it

They don't sound as good in actual play back as the CD's.
I've tried.
Many of the albums I like sound like trash compared to the cd when streaming even on their HiRes...their stored compressed so playback is crap....

The oversampling on disc's I feel smoothes out the sound.
And the selection of download able music in high resolution music is pretty awful frankly.
