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

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

        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.

      Or sell it to a used music store so someone else can repeat the process.

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