any with proprietary parts that are no longer available

It's really common in the "HT" marketplace -- yes, the idea is that one'll upgrade to the new "best ever" technology from the old one slightly before (or just after) the component dies.

So far, redbook CDs are still extant (if on death's door) so I don't know of any CD technology that's gone obsolete since 1984 (except, I suppose, CD-I "interactive" CDs and Kodak's PhotoCD).

A couple of the more grizzled veterans still kickin' around here...

Technics old CDP
Sony old CDP

Both of the above, rather amazingly, are happy to play a burned CD-R.

all the best,
