| I'll still buy CD's At least if you buy the CD you get something for what you pay for. Itunes don't seem to be any cheaper than buying a cd, so given a choice between those two I'll choose a CD.
At least with a CD I can my own mp3 copy for my portable player without DRM and at a higher quality.
I agree with one of the previous posters, that they're is room for various formats. CD, MP3, Vinyl etc.. |

Fort Wayne, IN | There are songs I have on 45s, LPs, cassettes, 8 tracks, and CDs. When Ipods came out, I refused to buy yet another copy of a song I already had numerous copies of. Especially when so many songs aren't, and maybe never will be, on Itunes, etc. So, I've been tranfering some tapes and records to CD.
Just checking Amazon, it seems like almost every song ever recorded in the past 80 years or so is on CD somewhere. I don't think the same will never be true of MP3 downloads.
I like a variety of music from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, etc. Rockabilly, surf, rock instrumentals, British, psychedelic, garage, hard rock and so on, much of which cannot be downloaded from any music site. I'll hang on to my music, and expand my collection, instead of paying for what I already have.
MP3s are ok for some things, but I prefer hard copies for songs and albums, played through a quality stereo system.
