Do Cds Still Beat Digital Music?

By Hedrick Lepsch


When was the last time you went to a store and purchased a CD? If you are like the majority of people, it has been a while. In the digital age we live in, we are all about getting our music from purchase and download websites in the form of MP3 files. With all sorts of portable music players, even on our smartphones, MP3s have become the norm in terms of music purchases. So why are some stores still selling and some people buying CDs? Here are some reasons to explain why this behavior still exists, even in this digital age.

Many pure music lovers really pay attention to the sound quality of their tunes. These folks argue that the quality of sound on CDs is far superior to that of downloaded MP3 files. Even though the quality of songs downloaded from iTunes and other services are very high quality, purists will prefer CDs for their favorite music.

Even though you may not use this technology much anymore, did you ever learn how they worked? Understanding how a CD works can help you understand a variety of other technologies. Even though you do not use a CD, you probably use DVDs or even Blu Ray discs. Understanding CDs will help you understand all of these technologies as well.

While we may see a further decline in CD purchases as years go by and these older cars phase out, there are still a great many who are adverse to the new digital music technology craze and will still prefer to buy physical CDs of their favorite bands' albums.

If you ever took part in CD duplication, you understand that there are a lot of different types of media that you can put on a CD. Many people that take part in CD duplication, do so to transfer a variety of types of media. When you are duplicating a CD, you may find that you are transferring pictures, text, music, or even different types of data.

And by the time you get that much music, there's no guarantee that your device will still work like new. CD prices fluctuated a while back, but are fairly stable now, so most people don't feel especially lured to digital downloads by the price.

Having something physical to collect is much more fulfilling and fun than just a file folder on a computer. This goes for the actual musicians and groups as well. It is great for them to be able to give away actual CDs rather than a QR code that people can scan. Though technology has evolved, there is something timeless about CDs.
