What format do you like your music in? Do you prefer to buy CD's from your favorite music store or do you prefer to download mp3? Tell us why?
Me? Thanks for asking. I still prefer to buy my CDs. I like to have something I can hold on to, open up and see some artwork or read liner notes / lyrics / photos / whatever. I do, however, mp3 the disc when I get to work though so I can listen via my computer. I bothers me that I don't actually own anything when I download an mp3. I've had a few hard drives crash on my and lost all of my collection before. So, I am bit weary of only having an mp3 version of a song. Maybe it's the same reason I like to read magazines instead of simply reading off of a website. I just like having the physical object to hold. No, I don't own an iPod. Yes, I do have a crappy portable CD player. -------------------- ![]() |

That's too funny to be true, I think that is an Urban Legend. ![]() I love CD's. I enjoy the packaging and art design that goes into an album. You can argue that LP's are even better due to the larger format artwork, but you cannot take vinyl with you to enjoy in the car. I have a vast collection of MP3's as well, and who doesn't want their entire collection in digital format, able to call up any song in seconds, without digging through boxes and CD wallets to find that one special song to fit your mood. CDs are the way to go. What's more impressive, a long list of text showing what songs you have, or towering stacks of CDs? I'll take the CDs but of course I will rip them to MP3 format for massive party playlists with no disc swapping to kill the vibe. |
