5 Signs CDs Are (Slowly) Becoming Extinct...The Last One Says It All.

I'll never stop buying and listening to CDs. I bought my first one after switching from cassettes in 1993 and never looked back.

CD's forever! Less expensive than vinyl. Needs less room for storage. Lasts longer. No cleaning or having to get up and change sides. No crackles or pops.

[@Gregbaltzer]

it's an easier listen then vinyl. You don't have to get up to turn a CD over. Double vinyls are the worst. I think the last couple Maiden albums were triple vinyl. I felt like I was constantly having to get up to flip the album, or change the record

[@tomp8463]

[@philsmith2444]

I’ve never understood people who think vinyl sounds better or “warmer” because of the pops, crackle, and hiss. If it wasn’t part of the music being recorded, why do you want to hear it?

I'm a big CD collector always loved this format great video 🤘

[@pierreduchesne0001]

I checked the date of the video... Maybe a few years ago you were right, but today?? It's more the vinyl renaissance that's fading, mainly because of the costs of LPs and the poor quality control of today's vinyl. Personally I like vinyl, I prefer CDs, but I don't have a strong opinion on one format over the other. What I just hope is that physical formats will remain.

Everyone thought vinyl was on the way out in the late 1980s/early 90s. CDs had supposedly made both vinyl and cassettes obsolete. Loads of people cheaply sold, gave away or dumped their records- and later regretted it. The 'elites' may prefer us to own nothing and be happy and just have an 'app' or 'files' on a phone or computer- but I'm very happy with my physical collection thanks and I would like to promote owning a physical music collection, be it CDs, vinyl or cassettes, to younger generations.

I'm glad you mentioned what most people are oblivious to: that being the globalist World Economic Forum's mantra, "You will own nothing and be happy." Well, I will always prefer my audio to be physical and not dependent on Wi-Fi and subscriptions.

[@daveycretin664]

I still like CDs. After working in record stores for over three decades, my CD collection is quite voluminous. Sadly, it’s mostly in storage. However, l still buy CDs to listen to in my car and show on my KZbin channel.

CD is the best, never had a problem with CD's ! Best sound quality and you don't need a lot of space to store them ! New vinyl is ridiculously expensive, it is a money grap for record companies !

I’d be a little more ok with this if every online serviced streamed in CD quality. Unfortunately, a lot of people who never experienced physical vinyl or CDs miss out in what those records are actually supposed to sound like.

[@aloscalzo2112]

I still have a cd collection but rarely play them with streaming available. I have really curbed my vinyl purchasing as the prices are out of control and lack of space, but I enjoy my vinyl collection more. It’s fun to look at the artwork and I don’t mind flipping the sides and stuff. Nostalgia.

[@spiffy8576]

If there comes a day when you can no longer buy Vinyl Records, CDs or Cassette Tapes, I’ll just stop buying music.

If you're happy being held captive by large music streaming companies, then the absence of physical media won't bother you in the slightest. On the other hand, those of us who actually sit and listen to music reproduction will not in the slightest be happy if music in the physical form vanishes.

[@ErickNWOBHM]

Great vid John, but I completely disagree. Sure, I'm bias being an avid CD collector however, vinyl sales have dropped significantly between 25-30% mainly due to rising prices of vinyl. Many current vinyl collectors, not all of course are now collecting CD's being that they are more affordable. On the flipside, CD sales have risen double digits. Record stores are receiving a huge amount of used late title vinyl from younger vinyl collectors that can't keep up with the rising prices. From everything I am hearing and seeing, there is a bit of a resurgence of CD's while the vinyl bubble seems to be deflating. Just my opinion of course. Lovin your channel man!

[@islandhorizonvideos8230]

I think your whole theory goes out the window because vinyl sales are currently down by a lot.

[@SGED392]

Target here in Fort Worth TX still carries some CD’s and the one of the last C.D.Warehouse in Texas is actually now called CD warehouse records and tapes

[@MrSlipstreem]

It's bound to happen. Nothing lasts forever. There are no secondhand stores near where I live, so I tend to go on eBay and buy from reputable resellers with a 100% money-back guarantee. The CDs then get ripped to LAME MP3 in VBR at -V2 (indistinguishable from CD to 99% of listeners in double blind listening tests) and stored away carefully in a CD-friendly environment. All of the CDs I bought back in 1985 still play back flawlessly and rip error-free, so I don't think disc rot is a major problem if you store your CDs correctly.

Those who care about physical music formats and quality sound will never rely on Wi-Fi and subscriptions. The car dealer obviously finds the lack of a cd player amusing because, I suspect, he obviously doesn't listen closely to music.

[@pleasantvalleypickerca7681]

Super weak arguments. Most stores including wal mart got rid of ALL media not just cds. Most don't have dvds or vinyl either. Only one local store has a media department. It stocks DVDs, vinyl and loads of CDs. $40 for vinyl $10 for same album on CD. I still sell cds on ebay. This video is totaly out of touch with reality. I don't have time for videos this pointless.

I got a hard rock, classic metal and stoner/doom college radio show in Cleveland OH that is 100% CDs! Doom On!

I have to admit.. don't really buy CDs anymore and I don't stream. Radio is dead since we only have DAB+. Typically buying hi-res music in places like 7digital, HDtracks and bandcamp, right into my archive and backup HDD. A memory stick in the car does the trick. If I didn't have access to hi-res FLAC I would probably go back to vinyl.

[@JohntheMusicNut]

Great video John! I believe it depends on the area where you reside. I still buy a lot of CDs and haven't bought a vinyl record for myself in 5 years. I am fortunate to have an independent record store nearby. They still have and sell more CDs than vinyl and also sell out of more new releases on CD than vinyl. However, I have gone to many music stores outside of the area and often they will onIy sell vinyl or have few CDs. I go to a lot of concerts and yes, it seems you see more t-shirts and koozies these days. For up and coming artists, you will see a fairly equal amount of vinyl and CDs and it seems with more established ones, you may see just the latest album. As for CDs players in vehicles, I have a new vehicle on order and I was given a choice of options. The salesman said, "We can put in anything you want". I said, "Can you put in a CD player?" Nope, they couldn't accomodate me. I couldn't get anything I wanted! Cheers!

I still buy some CDs and still really like the format...especially in the car. When I bought a new car in 2021, I looked specifically for used cars with CD players. This will likely be my last car with a CD player unless I have enough money to have some kind of custom car stereo installed.

[@esteeb67]

I still have a CD player in my car. I have no idea what I will do when we get a new car. I buy them regularly especially the bands I love (ACDC, Maiden, etc.). I love making mixes too. I get a lot of CDs from the library and from record stores and occasionally online. I also download some stuff from iTunes. From all of that I usually create mixes of my favorite songs from my most recent acquisitions. I also make various mixes for different styles of music or make my own greatest hits packages that focus on my favorites rather than the traditional hits. I am a dinosaur, but I am not going down without a fight. p.s. I refuse to pay for streaming. My collection is too big to pay for duplication. I hope I can keep it going for the next 20 years or so.

[@islandhorizonvideos8230]

The reason why there are no CD players in cars anymore because the cars are Bluetooth. Why don’t you ask how many people out there not just in the bottom will community but anyone that listens to music whether they have record players the number is a very, very low.

[@RekkidTalk]

I went from a 2013 to a 2023 car last year, and of course no CD player in the new car. I have a Tidal account for streaming that I almost never use at home, where I listen to my vinyl or my CDs. The streaming is for in the car/at work and for sampling albums that others say I should check out. I buy very few new CDs these days but will look through used CDs in flea markets and have found some $1 bargains amid the deluge of crap.

With CD's there are virtually no problems. I own over 7 thousand CD's not a problem with any of them. It's a subjective reasoning ultimately. I personally see little evidence of CD's disappearing! In conclusion, storage is far easier. The only plus for me with vinyl is the sound. But all the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.

A museum of young hipsters and dusty old academics pandering to them. Smartwatches aren't going to to replace watches or make them redundant, neither are valve amps or digital amps are going to replace integrated amps and a resurrected old music technology, with a needle reading a groove, that became a big trend again and became a new way the customers could get ripped off by the music industry, isn't going to kill the detailed and lossless .wav file on a cd ROM. Not when it has such a following, provides so much resilience and convenience AND has a massive electronics industry that supports it in providing sound quality that cannot be matched. But I guess we will see what happens when the youth gets sick of being ripped off abandons the vinyl trend. Digital and streaming will be king and there may be a cd resurgence, since it is superior to the vinyl format, as a physical medium, in every way, except having big album covers on a bit of cardboard.

The term Heavy Metal as a catch all phrase to describe all noisy music is wearing thin . It's time someone coins a phrase to describe all these Monster at the mic bands.

They have a pair of AR 3 speakers in the Smithsonian. The first popular acoustic suspension speaker. That does not mesn speakers are going out of style. AR, the brand, I haven't seen in a while. The last time I seen anything AR, was their interconnects at Best Buy. For a while Best Buy looked like they couldn't decide whether to carry Monster Cable or AR cables. Cds sound better than streaming, we are told by many high end audio reviewers, which if they tell us right, cds sound better than even high end streamers. Cds are cleaner sounding than vinyl on very good cd playback equipment, which makes cd the best, or one of the two best formats we have. I do not see tons of people buying a turntable to pay $30 to $40+ for new vinyl. Just as most people do not have high end stereos because of cost, the majority are never going to opt for the more expensive proposition of buying music. A format that has very inconsistent pressings compared to cd. Analog does have a noticeably more natural sound, but the showier sound presentation of cd is good also, and I would guess more impressive to most. People galore believe that lps have better sound because they are told so by people like Michael Fremer. He published his own magazine for a while called The Tracking Angle. An all all analog magazine in the middle of cds most popular years. It apparently didn't do all that well. Michael Fremer in print, said years ago, that the Mobile Fiidelity Abraxas by Santana lp was absolutely the best sound quality of any recording he ever heard. Later it was revealed that particular lp was recorded from a digital copy of the analog tape. Cds are just more practical than vinyl, even beyond just cost and convenience. They have so many advantages. They have cd sets with 5 cd titles in one set for $20 or so. Buying 5 new lps, most with digital mastering could cost $200 or more. Actually it's a no brainer. If cds do ever go extinct, it won't be because of vinyl, it will be because physical formats have become obsolete.

[@TalesofWiltshire]

It's the black t-shirt brigade, guys like you of a certain age, that will ensure the resurgence of CDs. Your desperation to regain your former "muso status" from back in the day is fast becoming a turn off - and once people start seeing vinyl as uncool again, then it's all over. There's millions of people out here in the real world who love music first, the format second. Do you really seriously think that such a successful format as the CD is going to disappear off the face of the earth - no of course it wont't! In fact it has all the makings of becoming THE most collectable format in years to come. Sales of CDs are rising, prices are rising - you need to study eBay and Discogs more carefully. Once you get away from the mass market stuff, CDs have retained their value very well. PS: I have about 4000 CDs - Jazz, World Music, Latin, Classical, Opera, Soul, Indian music, African, Greek... and I'm still collecting with a passion. The great thing is that 99.9% of the CDs I buy are absolutely free of DEFECTS!

[@xwhite2020]

I still collect CDs but I can see it coming to an end simply because A) I don't listen to new bands B) I don't enjoy newer albums from acts that should retire eg.

[@iancocks9408]

I don’t think any act should retire. Some of the recent albums by old bands have definately been duds. Although Judas Priest was amazing, Metallica was nothing new but sounds like death magnetic which is good. Iron maiden I can’t get into at all. They probably struggled for consistent albums from 2006 onwards. The book of souls was better though than senjutsu another latest album dud.

Well, all physical media is on the way out. This vinyl revival is just a phase. I personally buy both cds and vinyls. Cds generally have better sound but lack that warm vinyl retro feel to it. But the sound is often not as good apart from some exceptions ofcourse. This is a generalization but technically it is also a fact to some degree. New vinyl recordings is no use. I would only praise those analog recordings. The rest is just a digital recording transfered to vinyl, which sounds worse. King Diamond made it differently with the latest releases of the albums where they transfered the analog recordings on to the new vinyl. These are perhaps worth getting.
