Not having an attack here John, just a conversation, but I don't 'get' why you want CDs. To me it would be equally odd to download tracks and then record them onto a cassette.

Jay BS 06 January 2010 18:22

I still think that the cost of downloaded albums is too high compared to the CD – in some cases the CD is cheaper ! Five pounds is the most i would pay for an album download.

Simon Crees 06 January 2010 19:58

Bloomin 'eck la', you still muckin around with them old fashioned CDs? Wassamatter with mp3s?

Hi Anorakkers – here's an interesting article that was in todays paper. --- start --- Small internet radio stations face being wiped out by a change in the way royalties are calculated.

Is it possible to transmit a CD with no loss of quality? Does a 320 kb/​s MP3 transmission provide CD quality as near as anyone can tell?

Sterling Times 12 October 2007 16:32

Isn't it cheaper to just download the tracks (legally) and then burn your own CD of the tracks, if you must put them onto a CD.

Sat Nav manufacturer TomTom is to start selling in-car radio radio systems, but the new double height unit is missing DAB and a CD player.

that's a funny thing DVD sales are doing OK on all platforms. However, what were the CD sales figure 5 years ago compared to today?

No agreed it will take a while for all the shops and users to go. That doesn't detract from the fact that CD stores in the UK are not on the increase.

Edited bits from there release. The iDA-X001 has one built-in audio source, an AM/​FM tuner, and no CD/​DVD slot. Instead, it has a dedicated USB input to directly connect an iPod.

any self respecting music person should be able to tell you But now you've changed the subject from "singles" to "tracks". That's cheating !

I dunno if it'd because I never bother to look, or if it's because they don't exist, but I can't remember the last time I saw a single that wasn't in a private collection.

The commercial radio chart show hit40uk is to no longer reflect CD sales in its weekly countdown. This historic move comes after figures show 96 per cent of sales in the charts are downloads only.

Simon Crees 07 January 2009 22:27

Tell your presenters not to say anything but to play all the songs in bunches of three or four at a time back to back (segued).

Steve Jobs has compared the hi-def Blu-ray format to the hi-res audio platforms DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD, and said Apple Macs won't come with Blu-ray drives anytime soon.

You can record into Audacity/​your favourite editor from the soundcard's record device.

Graham Jones 05 November 2006 12:34

Dunno about that. The CD is a bit of a big bulky thing physically really, and the non-re-writeable ones are already pointless in computer terms compared to a little cheap compact usb stick thingie.

I have read several times now that the future route for music artists to make money is going to be from live performances. I tend to agree.

Simon Crees 12 April 2010 11:32

 Not sure I'd entirely agree with you. In the last 3 or 4 years I've probably spent around £3000 on CDs alone plus a smaller amount for vinyl where a CD hasn't been available.

Alan Milewczyk 07 June 2009 20:46

These are very complex laws. I've never completely understood them.

Peter G. Millington-Wallace 17 September 2009 10:12

From: "Jay BS" <(Address removed)> Yes I can see that. I was like that with vinyl. I loved the smell of the cover, weird I know, also loved album artwork, not so much with cd though.

Quoting a previous Andy contribution:- I think the issue is a lot deeper than just DAB.

Is there still a lot of hospital radio around? If so, why? Back in the day when people occupied a bed for a long period whilst recovering from whatever, it had a purpose.

I bought half a dozen CDs from a dealer in Belgium about 6 months ago. I've probably bought 3 or 4 hundred CDs over the last 3 or 4 years. While mp3s rule, a lot of the CDs I buy are pretty rare.
