On the MAX in #portland, and a young man sat near me and pulled out a Sony Discman, and plopped a CD into it.
@howard I have two used CDs on the way right now. The last Van Halen CD from, 2012 (I can't remember the title off the top of my head) and The White Room by the KLF (the vinyl for that used is crazy expensive so CD it is.) Physical media is great in 2025. I use an '91 Harmon / Kardon 5 disk changer with a 90s Harmon / Kardon receiver, two Polk Audio series 4 (I think?) speakers and two Minimus7 speakers. Still need to find a subwoofer but probably don't need it with this setup.
