Trouble with MP3, you lose to much quality.

Its excellent for in-car. Too much background noise to worry about the quality being perfect.

Given the state of my hearing with a combination of tinitus and plain simple deafness induced by too many years of extreme Marine diesel engines, motorbikes and assorted firearms, then a scratchy 78 with a blunt needle can sound quite reasonable, so no worries about MP3's and audio CD creation, especially in the car!!!

Shit happens.....  :-/    Some things you simply just have to accept but, thankfully, mine is not as bad as some.  Its more the deafness that can be a problem.  For some reason, bass notes are a little more difficult, as are the extreme highs.  Its the boring mixture in the middle that I have to endure!!   ;D

I still buy my music on CD. If I pay for music, I like to have something physical. Buying MP3s online just doesn't seem right to me  :-/.  And I don't trust Apple's ability to run DRM, so iTunes sucks.

I buy CD SACD DVD-A from Play and CD-WOW.

I try to avoid music CD ROMs as one of my players cannot handle it
