Mark,
I still prefer CDs over files on my computer or iPod. Yes. I can have thousands of songs on my PC and iPod but actually having the album in front of me to look at and get the feel of what an artist is trying to express with the artwork, song titles, liner notes, etc. is still an important aspect in my listening style. I'm not really interested in looking up all that info online. I know that others don't have a problem with it but I really like the album in my hand just like a book. I tend to notice that when there are just digital downloads floating about on either my computer or iPod...I tend to know the song and that's about it. I often find myself taking the time to see the display, "Who is this again?".
I know that how we consume and listen to music is changing fast but I'm kicking and screaming all the way like a cranky old man yelling at kids to get off of his lawn. *lol
Aloha,
Michael McCartney
