Back in my day, we used vhs. And I’m not even old.

yukichigai,

Boring. If you’re gonna destroy a CD just wedge it on a Dremel and spin it until it explodes.

can,

Can’t even play them on your console anymore.

i actually burned a cd yesterday.. a boot disk for a utility.

only to find the system i needed it for didn't support legacy boot, and the boot image didn't have uefi support.

i had to take out an audio cd to burn it.. so yea, cd do get used here.. occasionally. probably been a year or more since that audio cd had been played.

Blamemeta,

Better for actually owning music instead of a license

PleasantAura,

Lies. CDs are useful for ripping to FLAC and then putting away in a box somewhere never to be seen again.

threelonmusketeers,

I must be uninformed. What is FLAC, and should I be using it?

name_NULL111653,
  1. Free lossless audio codec.
  2. Yes.

Yes. MP3 was good for making a really small file but it lost quality, flac makes a small(ish) file but no audio information is lost at all. With current storage capacities its worth it.

PsychedSy,

They’re useful if opsec lets you bring them into secure areas. Sealed. And they only get to leave shredded.

That’s the main reason I buy cds. It is near impossible to get a flac copy online for some artists.
