Hello Everyone,
I'm sure us auiophiles have some CD's laying around but what would be the bestway to preserve this data?
Taiyo-Yuden or Gold?
I have heard the the life span of CD's is fairly short. I have some Cd's that are 6 or 7 years old and play very well. My only collection is I have a music collection that some music cannot be bought in the US or is very hard to obtain. Anyhow, Some of these CD's are professionally recorded (I.e music companies.). I would like to preserve this data which also includes the videos and pictures as well as the music (most important) for years to come. I have a portable Cd player that's working on about 7 or a years and still plays great. I am an audiophile (person who listens to music at high quality or high fidelity and loves listening to music). I would prefer to save the data on my music CD's to be in a lossless format so I can listen to them at their optimal quality. I ask any way to preserve the data on my CD's for the future. Since I am a young person I hope this will work. Some of this data is to valuable to me and cannot be lost. So what format should I use? (physical and digital) I also thank your for taking the time to read this long question.
I would greatly aprecoate your responses and thought. I Hope this is in the right section though.
