I'm not getting rid of my CDs for that exact reason. I hardly ever play them, but they serve as a very effective backup library.
I know what you mean but it seems for me I've burnt out on my entire collection of CD's except my Jazz from the 50's. While there is a lot of excellent music in it I've simply moved on to new music because I'm a new sound junkie. I get all of my new music from the extensive county library and then I cherry pick. So all my music is now across 3 hard drives and none of it is from my CD collection. I simply don't listen to it anymore. Sometimes out of guilt I peruse through the collection and try to pick out something I might want to listen to and it always turns out the same. I'm not as interested as I once was.
I know for most people this is not the case and probably peculiar to me alone. But thats the way my neural pathways have evolved. I seem to thrive for the exploration of new sounds and then according to my playlist I average about 20 plays on a tune and then I move on.
So it looks like the CD collection is going to be smelted in the financial caldron along with other lost interests and perhaps contribute to a WA2 and the resulting expenditure which will surely follow as tubes roll in and out.
