Absolute best part is that you gain appreciation for cds when you get older.

Hello everyone! How is everybody?

I'm doing well, actually. About the eggs in your signature...well I just checked it today and I don't see anything different [note: has sigs disabled].

@FABuLUSH!; Woot, another blocker.

Nothing against signatures, but I sometimes view this place on my tablet and I would rather not have everything load up.

Haha same, on my iPad i just want to see the talk, not the random anime characters and all that. Easier to load and communicate.

CDs, yeah you do appreciate them more. The smell of a brand new CD, the sleekness of an unscuffed case.

Another thing that seems to be falling out of style is liner notes. [Note: this varies between musicians.] I find that learning who was involved on the sets of the tracks is a nice experience and you find out about people that work behind those scenes as well.

When did you get started in your collection?

I love the little booklets you get, no mp3 can replace that. Depends on the artist, and I do feel disappointed when a favourite artist doesn't include any linear notes.

I started buying CDs in 2008, my first three, which i bought at the same time, were Muse's Black Holes and Revelations, a Dio best of and Mastodon's Blood Mountain. i don't listen to any of them now, but that's what got me started in CDs. What got you started?

I started in 2003. Had a couple of CDs before then, but the collection started in 2003 with some smooth jazz artists. It grew from there. I filled out an entire 25 cd case [yeah it's not that much lol].

Never liked smooth jazz, more into Hard Bop myself. No 25 isn't much, but if you enjoy them then that's all that matters :)

If you're ever near Princeton, NJ, go to Princeton Record Exchange. They sell really cheap used CDs. Last time I went I bought 22 CDs for $47. Good ones, too.

Oooooh, which bands?

Lol, a lot. Some that I can think of right now are Flaming Lips, Tom Waits, Fleet Foxes, Supertramp, Jayhawks, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Dave Brubek, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and a bunch more. There were a lot.

Rain Dogs. I love it. Actually I think I got that one on my first trip up there, not the last one.
