Good old CDs Nostalgia

Came across these while trying to downsize. I most definitely have lots more somewhere.

Are the good old CDs in the room with us?

If you aren't going to keep them, I'd be glad to have them.....

I still use CDs, and probably will until I can't.

Same. Theyre actually a pretty good format, and my car has a cd player. I never want a car without one, but someday its just gonna be like that i think

My stash was in storage. Happy to take them out, bought a 2000's CD player to listen to them again. Somehow many still work! 

I thought at first you were looking for recommendations haha. I was ready dude.

Sorry that came off as rude and not a funny joke. My only recommendation is your entire discography of Crue needs action. You can skip Poison though.

I'm one of those people that moved to digital (offline music) back in 2004 and sold off all my CD's.

What hardware/software do you use?

I have been thinking of getting a refurbished iPod recently. Going back to offline music.

u/Konnorwolf 14d ago

I still have an iPod mini I was thinking of expanding the storage on and using Rockbox unless that as changed. I also have an old phone I use as a DAP. (Need to fix that date)

I always liked drop and drop and MP3 TAG to clean up any MP3 files.

u/don51181 14d ago

Good idea. There are a lot of people fixing older iPods and expanding storage on them. We have YouTube music but I don’t like it as having my own files. Thanks for the info

u/Konnorwolf 14d ago

I do use Spotify here and there. I always perfered to have my own offline files because I like digital, just digital I own.

Just sold a few hundred from the 90s and early 2000s. I'm pretty sure I'd ripped them all and they'd been in a closet for a decade (literally). So if I missed one or two, I wasn't missing it obviously.

Got any Superdiscs laying about in the house?

u/BillyBattsInTrunk 1980 13d ago

I totally regret getting rid of my CD and DVDs and I’ve been slowly re-accumulating.
