I've heard that CD's will be going the way of the cassette in the near

I suspect that's probably true. * Electronic distribution is a *lot*
cheaper and there are essentially no production or inventory costs.


BUT..... if your Computer crashes, you loose your purchase. I dont
think CDs are going anywhere fast. They'll be here as long as they can
flog a buck out of them.
I still love listening to LPs, and I have quite a little collection of
old, original label 45s that I treasure as much as gold. Old Clyde
McPhatter, Little Richard, etc.
Old, rare LPs can still be bought on E-Bay. I have an original Jim
Reeves LP that had a voucher stuck inside the plastic on the front
that dated the album in the late 50s. I played it once, then stuck it
away.
