Yes - you! Why are you throwing all your CDs away again?

You really are getting worse Teresa.

A real 'music enthusiast' as opposed to an 'audiophile' will listen to music on a crackling, bedraggled cassette tape and enjoy it if he can't get it on a better format.

If you'd stated that you were replacing all your CDs with equivalent SACDs because you believed SACD to be superior then I'm sure hardly anyone would view this as anything strange, but when when someone who professes to be a massive lover of music makes a blanket statement that ALL CDs are being scrapped regardless of whether replacements are available on SACD it doesn't make sense.

Cassette tapes are usually pretty crappy, as are MP3s and many poorly mastered CDs, but I have many old, battered and abused cassettes of music I don't have on CD and they mostly ROCK!
