Thanks to me, Aomeba records in Hollywood and target 🎯 we keeping CDs and records alive and also Japan selling CDs 💿 like crazy 📀📀📀💿💿💿let’s keep supporting artist and own our music people 😊
@@seagul3246stupid ads or not it's what pays the station to play the music, incidentally buying CDs is still the kinda same thing except you are now paying to then play them yourself but as for CDs though I didn't even think they went away, I think they are maybe used less but certainly not gone
If records can make a comeback I have faith the cds 💿 will also make a comeback especially right know there soooo damn cheap fingers cross people we need more people to buy them though
Collecting CD's by my favorite artists has been my #1 hobby since 1995. I've never waivered from the format and never will. Before that it was cassettes.
Some of us CDs never went away, I personally have a great collection so I’m all about the experience of the cover art and the liner notes that you get with a CD..
I still really love vinyl, but if artists start getting creative again with the CD, then I will start buying more CDs. Having said that, it would also be nice to have some sexy looking CD players made again for living room usage...
@@robertquant1122 I have over 3000 CD, 2000 DVD/Blu rays and maybe 200 Video game discs. The space even those took up was insane. I tossed all the cases and inserts and put them all into binders.. When I collected vinyl about 25 years ago I had somewhere about 1500 LPs and 45s.. sold it all 15 years ago for $25,000 (I collected mainly rare early punk stuff)
They definitely are! Your channel inspired me to help my friends band do a CD and it sold out in like 4 hours (we only made 35 but still). This was my first release ever and the success was in a big part thanks to the stuff I learned from your channel.
I released a new full length album in Feb and have CDs on offer. Everyone who bought one all did so with a disclaimer of “I know I’m old school”, but as you say, I am SO delighted that they want to support my music…CD, Vinyl, Digital, Stream, whatever… Moreover, the time and energy put into making an attractive physical product is significant, and so those folks that bought a CD have all said how “beautiful” they think it is, and how they enjoy holding it in their hand. Go CDs! Go music sales!
I sure hope they are! I've pretty much given up on the LP because of the expense. Let's hope the CD comes back big time and takes the wind out of the inflated LP prices.
When vinyl starts costing more than CDs I say the hell with it I'm sticking with CDs all the way I really believe some people just like seeing that record Spin and dropping the needle on the vinyl it brings back a lot of memories but tell you the truth I'm very happy with CDs
Cds 💿 are more easy to take care of and take up less space on bookshelves and u can take them anywhere u want as long as u have a cd player to play it on . I’m so sorry 😞 😂😂😂😂 streamers I don’t have internet 🛜 so I’m good listening to music 😅😅😅😅 good luck 👍 owning renting that cheap low quality music on a cheap cell phone 😅
Before I watch this cds never went away I use them al the time for sharing my songs and listening yea I mostly do on online but sharing my stuff or if I can’t get Wi-Fi yea love them but I do know most people don’t listen to them
I recently went out and bought a portable boom box. They sell them for not much money. I still have lots of CDs from back in the day. They all play perfectly. Just started buying physical media again. I buy vinyl as well. CDs are my thing though. Grew up with them glad they are still here.
Tascam makes a cd recorder, they also make a cd player/recorder with a cassette Player/ recorder so you can record CD and copy to cassettes if you want.
Yeah keep those forever Japanese cds 💿 hella expensive but they have even better sound quality than a regular cd 💿 because the technology in Japan to make their cds 💿 is really powerful
I want them to🤷🏽♀️ I miss the feeling of OWNING a piece of music I love or at least having something to show for it. I’d be cool with Vinyl coming back too 💯
Apparently cds are actually more "green" than streaming because streaming services have massive server rooms that all need to be air conditioned which takes up a shitload of power.
I’ve heard that. Even though they are made of plastic, unless they are thrown away, they aren’t considered single use. In fact, a lot of my CDs are 10-20 years old. Or older!
CDs as a medium never left. They just dwindled a little. But what in my opinion is happening now is that CDs as a music media are transitioning (or maybe already did transitioned) from a mass item to a niche one. Exactly like vinyl records. So the real coming back of the CDs would be to have on them well mastered recordings (high beautifully sounding dynamic range) instead of the "for car/walkman listening" (low and compressed bad sounding DR) mastered recordings. Today CDs are mostly listened on Hi-fi systems in quiet home environments. No more cars or walkmans. Labels (Sony especially, sorry to say names) should acknowledge this and comeback to publishing CDs suited for this.
Actually people like listening to cds in cars 🚗 so ur wrong a lot of people have old cars and know Amazon sells cd 💿 transports for new cars sooo no more excuses My car don’t have a cd player 😂😂😂
Vinyl is good but expensive. Cd is alternative and you can fast forward your music with remote. Theres still players being sold that have cassette and cds at the same time.
I love vinyl, I've been collecting vinyl since I was 16. But more recently, I've gotten back into collecting CDs for the first time in 6 years. I gave it up because my listening habits largely shifted to streaming because of convenience, but I missed the physical aspect of the music, holding the thing, flipping through a booklet as I'm listening to the music. CDs are much less heavy than records, easier to transport and easier to store. I own vinyl, cassettes and CDs, but I've shifted more towards CDs lately.
I bought my first cd player in 1987 and never looked back. It's my been my "go to" music format ever since. By 1989 I had a cd player in the car, which replaced my cassette deck.
Does anyone have a good comparison on appeal, demand, sales, etc. - either based on the overall market and/or on one's own fanbase - of different physical media: vinyls vs. CDs vs. tapes vs. other (i.e., mini-discs)? It seems like it would be fun to dabble with each medium but, ultimately, an artist would just focus on what's most wanted, and thus also purchased.
Just another thought...the stats always look at US sales (maybe UK as well), what about the rest of the world, including Asia, Eastern Europe, Oceania, Africa? What are the sales there? I don't know of course but I have a suspicion that CD sales are healthier (greater) there than in the US.
Of course they are because once again people are tired of the lesser sound quality, scratch possibilites, constant cleaning needs, etc. It was only a matter of time before the fad came to an end.
@@OtherRecordLabels I have seen business cards that double as usb sticks which are pretty cool. You can design them too. For me, it’s about song ownership. Even being able to download the file is nice. I don’t have a CD player any more so usb stick would be cool but they are expensive compared to a CD. If you filled it with other videos and goodies though then it’d be cool
Nawwww UsBS are worse the sound quality still sucks The only reason people buy USBS just to have a lot of music on a chip but CDs 💿 can also have mix songs depending how many songs u put on a cd 💿 but CDs 💿 will always have better sound quality USBS are just like Bluetooth sound quality sucks and u can lose all that music easily 😅
@@robertquant1122 where do you get the idea that a usb stick is lesser quality? It is a digital medium exactly like a cd. It can contain Cd quality digital music and even music of much higher quality.

Come on you can't replace burning a cd in your PC with Spotify or going tru the insert of a CD that experience you will never have it with streaming EVER ...not to mention the sound quality of CDs is the best sound you can get ....I WILL NEVER RENT MUSIC I BUY CD AND I ALWAYS WILL
Burn CD’s because most people have a Blu-Ray player and they can CD’s or a DVD player at home or a stand a CD player or a 4K Blu-Ray player and that will play CD’s and they have audio through HDMI output.
In a way I hope that CDs become the do not become a big thing again because at the current second-hand price here in Australia they are a bargain. I suspect that the current vinyl craze (if it is one) will peter out as the newer customers get a reality check when it comes to the equipment, storage and the hassle involved becomes more apparent as collections grow. Moving home a few times with a modest collection and the gear involved will 'sort out the wheat from the chaff'.
Young independent musicians will bring them back. Vinyl pressings are too expensive. Tapes were revived by millenial bands, but fans were buying them as merchandise without owning a cassette player. There will be a 90's revival driven by Gen Z nostalgia. Its still easy and cheap to get hold of a cd player. And even if they don't go out looking for one, lots of the affordable 2nd hand cars that these kids will be driving still have Cd players
Gone ? FFS, even Target and K_Mart here in Oz still sell them - mostly new release pop dross admittedly but they never dropped the silver discs. Anyone still buying cassettes in 2022 needs professional help, but CDs never went away - you can still buy those all-in-one boomboxes with a cd drive in them and many car stereos still have the slot for a disc. I don't spend a lot of time at JB Hi-Fi - the name is a joke for a chain that sells little more than HT receivers and cheap speakers - but they have row-upon-row of vinyl and CDs. Clearly someone is still buying them. Hell, even DVDs still take up shelf space in our supermarkets - I guess we really are trapped in the 90s ;)
I can play my cds in my bly ray surround sound . One system plays my cds, dvds, and blu rays so cds up in here. Plus I rip to my pc so I can download a mix to my flash drive for my car. This way my discs stay at home safe. I have that xm raido but I never use it anymore. Not when I can just pick up random cds that look neat for 1.00 at flea markets and put like 30 albums on a flash drive.

CDs never really left, and I feel like they'll probably always be around. Look at what's happenined with cassettes. Vinyl maybe is a different story. How much longer are people going to put up with paying those sky high prices? I'll stick with playing my cassettes and CDs.
as a minimalist in progress, I only buy cds, and kits of soft plastic sleeves, and papers. This way 4 cds takes the space of one cd. In 2 big storage boxes I have 80 vinyles records. In one little box, about 6 inches by 12 inches, I have 100 cds.
Vinyl buyers are beginning to discover all the reasons we abandoned vinyl in the first place. I have about 3,000 discs and have sold off most of my vinyl. Never going back. I am trying to put a band together and I keep meeting musicians who have nothing to play my CD on. Boggles my mind.
Don't get me wrong vinyl sounds pretty good but records are a pain in the ass constantly cleaning them storing them personally I rather stick with CDs they're small they're easy to store and they sound awesome I have made up my mind I'm only going to buy CDs because in my opinion records are a pain in the ass but then to each its own
we are missing out emusic has no value to s colloctor , an educational compoment had left thus industry , we can't hold a cd and read the credits when the power is out ? we cant sign an ecopypo for your fans ?
They never made a big comeback but in a few years time I bet that streaming services will shamelessly force ads on everyone but the highest tiered customers. People will get fed up with this and go back to CDs. As technology becomes more intrusive people will want to downgrade their tech. I get by fine with second hand CDs and an MP3 player on my phone. I don't have to listen to ads and or need internet to enjoy my music.
why they ever faded is beyond logic. superior to vinyl in every way. analog vs digital can be debated but its mostly an academic argument. after that cds win hands down. non degradeable laser cds vs needle wear vinyl. easy storage. 1000 cds vs 1000 lps. a couple of bookshelves vs buckling wall shelves or crates stacked everywhere. portability for the car with cheap car players and no need to create downloads. easy track skipping vs lifting a tonearm and hoping for the best. last collectible format. the big 3. lps,cassettes,cds. reel to reel never caught on bigtime and forget 8 track. and very low prices now vs over priced vinyl. it never got better. trying to improve on cd like trying to improve on the wheel.

I’m calling knos Cd 💿 revival 2025 next year If records can make it cds 💿 are not far behind and cheaper
Burn CD’s because most people have a Blu-Ray player and they can CD’s or a DVD player at home or a stand a CD player or a 4K Blu-Ray player and that will play CD’s and they have audio through HDMI output.
Did they ever leave?
Quality of music on CDs are entirely different from others. Definitely CDs would come back. 3:34
:)
In a way I hope that CDs become the do not become a big thing again because at the current second-hand price here in Australia they are a bargain. I suspect that the current vinyl craze (if it is one) will peter out as the newer customers get a reality check when it comes to the equipment, storage and the hassle involved becomes more apparent as collections grow. Moving home a few times with a modest collection and the gear involved will 'sort out the wheat from the chaff'.
Japanese people are very sophisticated type of people.
The coolest!
Young independent musicians will bring them back. Vinyl pressings are too expensive. Tapes were revived by millenial bands, but fans were buying them as merchandise without owning a cassette player. There will be a 90's revival driven by Gen Z nostalgia. Its still easy and cheap to get hold of a cd player. And even if they don't go out looking for one, lots of the affordable 2nd hand cars that these kids will be driving still have Cd players
Thanks for watching! -Scott
CD players can be found anywhere especially target 🎯 and Bigg lots
Did you know that Lexus still offers CD players with their vehicles? Pretty damn cool if you ask me.
Gone ? FFS, even Target and K_Mart here in Oz still sell them - mostly new release pop dross admittedly but they never dropped the silver discs. Anyone still buying cassettes in 2022 needs professional help, but CDs never went away - you can still buy those all-in-one boomboxes with a cd drive in them and many car stereos still have the slot for a disc. I don't spend a lot of time at JB Hi-Fi - the name is a joke for a chain that sells little more than HT receivers and cheap speakers - but they have row-upon-row of vinyl and CDs. Clearly someone is still buying them. Hell, even DVDs still take up shelf space in our supermarkets - I guess we really are trapped in the 90s ;)
I can play my cds in my bly ray surround sound . One system plays my cds, dvds, and blu rays so cds up in here. Plus I rip to my pc so I can download a mix to my flash drive for my car. This way my discs stay at home safe. I have that xm raido but I never use it anymore. Not when I can just pick up random cds that look neat for 1.00 at flea markets and put like 30 albums on a flash drive.
I loved Mini Discs! I wish they would have caught on but too many people prefer to steal music than pay for it.
Yes, they are coming back. I bought records in 2006 for a few bucks. The same cycle signs are emerging for CDs. It may take 10 years, tho.
I’m above 3000 CDs and counting, to be honest Vinyls take space, CD’s quality is better and they cost more, it’s just for the aesthetics
If there are no more cd players in cars or computer made in America, how can CDS comeback in America?
Great question!

You have more control it’s tangible subscription you don’t own it you can’t touch it it was never yours.
CDs never really left, and I feel like they'll probably always be around. Look at what's happenined with cassettes. Vinyl maybe is a different story. How much longer are people going to put up with paying those sky high prices? I'll stick with playing my cassettes and CDs.
cassettes are dead dude
Yeah cassetttes don’t last long but CDs 💿 are wayyyyyy better they last longer and better sound quality
Yes CD will be back and they will be better than ever.
CD's sound a lot better than LP's no matter your audio system.
They haven't went away
Thanks for watching Steven! -Scott
Love CD's, better than paying for a ridicules subscription!
Good point!
Vinyl is big with very hi end audiophiles.
True!
Only cd s for me!❤
I’m very nostalgic I use vinyl and cds and have a draw full of tapes perhaps I’m just old 😂
As a minimalist wannabe, I am struggling to decide to buy CDs😢
as a minimalist in progress, I only buy cds, and kits of soft plastic sleeves, and papers. This way 4 cds takes the space of one cd. In 2 big storage boxes I have 80 vinyles records. In one little box, about 6 inches by 12 inches, I have 100 cds.
Plus, the soft sleeves make them look like vinyle records.
Vinyl buyers are beginning to discover all the reasons we abandoned vinyl in the first place. I have about 3,000 discs and have sold off most of my vinyl. Never going back. I am trying to put a band together and I keep meeting musicians who have nothing to play my CD on. Boggles my mind.
Interesting!
Im 24 lol and im sooo glad artist are selling physical music again
Awesome!!
Don't get me wrong vinyl sounds pretty good but records are a pain in the ass constantly cleaning them storing them personally I rather stick with CDs they're small they're easy to store and they sound awesome I have made up my mind I'm only going to buy CDs because in my opinion records are a pain in the ass but then to each its own
Indeed! Thanks for the comment!
CD's sound better than LP's and streaming ,the sound quality is way better period.
I Love Vinyl forever, but CDs are good to make in home.
Coming back??. I still have mine
Same.
we are missing out emusic has no value to s colloctor , an educational compoment had left thus industry , we can't hold a cd and read the credits when the power is out ? we cant sign an ecopypo for your fans ?
Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment!
Based on what's happening in music stores and online stores, I would say...no. At least, not in North America. We might have to get them as imports.
bien oui!
Long live cds
NO vinyl has been proved to be a better listening than a compressed cd -although it's cheaper
STOP TO TALK ABOUT CDs on social media to avoid an increase on price! DON'T RUIN OUR HOBBY!!! 😡 We CD collectors don't need hipsters buying CDs.
They never made a big comeback but in a few years time I bet that streaming services will shamelessly force ads on everyone but the highest tiered customers. People will get fed up with this and go back to CDs. As technology becomes more intrusive people will want to downgrade their tech. I get by fine with second hand CDs and an MP3 player on my phone. I don't have to listen to ads and or need internet to enjoy my music.
why they ever faded is beyond logic. superior to vinyl in every way. analog vs digital can be debated but its mostly an academic argument. after that cds win hands down. non degradeable laser cds vs needle wear vinyl. easy storage. 1000 cds vs 1000 lps. a couple of bookshelves vs buckling wall shelves or crates stacked everywhere. portability for the car with cheap car players and no need to create downloads. easy track skipping vs lifting a tonearm and hoping for the best. last collectible format. the big 3. lps,cassettes,cds. reel to reel never caught on bigtime and forget 8 track. and very low prices now vs over priced vinyl. it never got better. trying to improve on cd like trying to improve on the wheel.
I certainly hope so, Spotify is an app from hell
:)
The cds is back
CD sales increased in the US again in 2023.
CD's never left...
Agree!
Vinyl is overpriced and overhyped Cds still outsell vinyl in units sold.Cds are the best sound format ever.
CDs are great! Thanks for watching! -Scott
Yes CDs 💿 forever better sound quality
