I have used the CD player on the car when I come home from school. It one of the only times I hear music away from the computer (not even an MP3 player  ). |

I never had a CD player. In fact, I never had any audio CDs either 
As for portable devices, I've been using my (t)rusty 245MiB MP3 player since 2004, and am still using it today  |

| I'm still building my CD collection, though I will admit that all of my music is ripped into my computers (for convenience only, mind you). I still listen to CDs from my 51 disc changer, though. I'm about 3 discs away from having the thing filled up, too. I also listen almost exclusively to CDs in my car, though that's only because I don't know of the radio station that will play some of Meat Loaf's more obscure titles.
But yeah, I highly doubt I'll ever move on to portable digital media. MP3 Players and iPods are way too expensive for me... ____________________  |

Originally posted by MaxKnight Buy the cheapest MP3 player*, exchange the supplied headphones for some better ones (even the simple ~10$ ones from Sony are much better than the supplied, which usually have horrid bass, which came with the inexpensive devices) and money is no major problem. *Depending on the number of available space of course. Some offers simply are rip-offs. For me: I rarely buy CDs or download it (il)legally, I heavily rely on radio, sometimes record/rip my own tracks out, thanks to Audacity and turned-off system sounds. A CD may be not be a practical medium, to use for music, now, but a sparkling disc with some nice patterns on it, along with a good booklet is more interesting to put into the shelf than plain file names on a hard drive. The real problem, however is the incosistency between prices for CDs and music in MP3 format via the internet. I neither want to buy an album where only four out of ten track are pleasing me for the full price, on the other hand some downloads are as expensive as the physical CD in your store. On the other hand I currently have no CD player, as the constant changing of disks along with stuttering, if you are running outside for example, can be annoying at times. |

Originally posted by ShadowstarOriginally posted by MaxKnight I've had it for years, now. Got it as a Christmas present a long time ago, and have only recently had enough CDs to fill it. It's made by Sony, that's all I can tell you about it. I don't know if they still make things like this, anymore. It's huge, with stereo speakers and everything. I have no idea where you can find anything like this anymore. ____________________ |

CDs?
It's nice to have the disks my music came from (oh so shiny), but they tend to cost money. 
And then there are things like this that aren't from a CD... ____________________ モノ江 Monoe |
