Compact discs are objectively the best audio quality available while also being highly portable. So why are people abandoning them?

jewel cases suck

Because people don’t care about audio quality and streaming is more cost efficient for the consumer

How? Also you can just use the CD without the case if you want.

Then why is vinyl popular

fragile plastic, the little plastic tabs on the "door" of the case chip off all the time, as do the other little tabs that hold the liner notes and the disc itself

never liked the spool or carrying case, sorry

>never liked the spool or carrying case, sorry
that's your own problem

for all the CD's advantages in portability and audio quality no one has ever engineered a respectable means to package them. that's not a "me" problem

yes it is. the packaging isn't stopping you from enjoying the music. just keep the cds in a binder and throw the jewel case out if it bothers you so much.

aesthetic.

Thought this was a Yeezus thread

I reckon it's probably because of disc rot and they also cost money to buy.

i have hundreds of CDs and none of them have disc rot.

I'm not
Aesthetically I love them but yeah they berak and crack way too easily.

16 bits, 44.1 kHz really isn't that great

also I had a CD changer that fucked up a lot of my CDs and I'm still really mad about it

this post made by FLAC gang

im still using cds and cassettes mainly because I just like being able hold a physical copy of something and CDs have good audio quality with the right equipment. And as for why they are being abondended, well i'd say its partially because the of the vinyl resurgence

consumerism is stupid though

you're stupid

music should be free. artists should be payed by the government for enhancing quality of life

I wish. There are so many brilliant people who can't make a living with their art.

No really, it's stupid to buy pieces of plastic and pretend it's somehow enhancing your life.

it literally has the highest audio quality you nitwit. also physical mediums are superior to zeros and ones on a hard disk.

FLAC is better if you can get something higher quality than 16/44.1

They would be paid with tax money, which means you're still paying for it.

You gotta get a job.

What's it like having an audiophile dog?

all the shit I release is 24 bits, 48 kHz
say what you want, but a 16 bit noise floor is absolutely audible
