And, yes I am aware the trendy thing is to keep all ones music on a
hard drive. But, I like having the CDs.


You're a bit out of date... music is streamed from the cloud these days!

Possibly, Mizter T, but I do not like music in compressed formats. It
loses fidelity. I listen to .wav and .cdr formats.


It varies amongst people but it is an unfortunate fact of life that
although the format used may give better fidelity as people get older
their ears may not. It need not necessarily be as straight cut as a
blind man saying an HD telly has a better picture than a std one
therefore he needs the HD version but many people don't realise how
much detail their hearing is missing after around 40 to 50 years of
age even though they are a long way off needing a hearing aid.


Yes, very true. I always thought it ironic that the young can't afford top
class hi-fi systems, and those old enough to afford them can no longer hear
well enough to benefit.
