Am I in the minority?

I was perusing some older posts today about computer audio and one that got me thinking was, "Once you go the computer audio route, you'll never want to listen to a CD player again." I've tried using only a computer as my transport into a USB DAC, and while it sounded great, I found I wasn't listening to digital music as much as when I had a CD player. For me, I actually enjoy selecting a CD from the rack, placing it on the tray, and watching the display read "Track 1". Unlike some I don't mind getting off the couch to replace the CD with another when it's done. That's one of the reason why vinyl is a better medium for me, also. I like watching the record spin as the tonearm is being lowered. Am I the only one who feels this way?

I found it funny that as you described not wanting to listen to music via the computer nearly as much as versus the CD player, I was thinking to myself that I feel the same way about listening to my CD player versus my turntable. (And then wrote the exact same thing!)

However, I do feel that CDs have their place.
(But that place is in my car.)
