So. . . does anyone use a portable CDP anymore? I love the convenience of the iPod (and similar devices), but miss CDs. Let me explain. . .
I listen to my iPod at work, and it sounds great. But 6 months ago, I only used the iPod on travel or vacation. The reason was that I had a pretty good portable CDP. At work portability wasn't an issue. I could select a few CDs each night for the next day. Then while playing the CD, I'd read the liner notes.
With the iPod, I don't spend the night before "carefully" selecting the music for the next day, or reading the liner notes. (In some ways, it's similar to why I like listening to vinyl. I like the process of selecting the record, cleaning it off, reading the liner notes, etc.)
So, does anyone else share my thoughts -- or I am I just reminiscing?
It all comes down to deciding if I want to replace my CDP at work or not. . .
Have a good one!
