RE: My sentiments exactly!

I just like music. EVERY kind of music* and each of my current different music-players sound good, each in its distinctive, slightly different way.

Bears just like to resist CHANGE in all its guises! I therefore hated CD's when they first came out but -hey- I voted with my dollars, having bought a few thousand through the years. As CD players have gotten much better, my ears acclimated to their sonic signature, and they became the Only-Game-in-Town for new music, I had to say that they sounded damn good.

Nowadays, listening to WFMT on streaming internet "radio" I lament the lack of sparkle, no soundstage, tubby bass etc etc. but the same adjustment process is likely going on as far as all sorts of streaming/downloadable music: gradual ear-adjustment accompanied by increments technological improvements.

Let's plan to be hauling off wheelbarrows of CD's from Goodwill very soon, as the CD reaches the end of its big wave. I was lucky enough to haul off CARLOADS of LP's when they reached the end of their big wave in about 1985 or thereabouts. Right on- ride the wave!

* Full disclosure: Riverdance-able music, Indonesian Gamelan and Chinese opera excluded.
