Re: things not to buy in 2010 (twenty-ten) The point about CDs isn't about quality, but the change in hardware format. When's the last time you bought a PC / laptop that had a floppy drive? I can't even get to my backed up data that's saved on Zip drives. My latest computer, a netbook, doesn't even have a DVD / CD drive. I think Joe said, if you buy a CD, you're going to rip it right away. Whatever digital music player you have in the future will *probably* play mp3s, but you can't fit a vinyl record in a CD player. Either way... glad to have you guys back! Great show, guys!

The point about CDs isn’t about quality, but the change in hardware format. When’s the last time you bought a PC / laptop that had a floppy drive? I can’t even get to my backed up data that’s saved on Zip drives. My latest computer, a netbook, doesn’t even have a DVD / CD drive. I think Joe said, if you buy a CD, you’re going to rip it right away. Whatever digital music player you have in the future will *probably* play mp3s, but you can’t fit a vinyl record in a CD player.

Either way… glad to have you guys back!
