CD Dead??


A good friend informs me that the CD player is going the way of the dinosaur and that digital music servers will replace the disks and the players with uncompressed downloads. Anyone else hearing this?

It seems to me that the audio industry is still churning out some excellent CD players, so apparently they do not believe that the CD is dead unless they are counting on new equipment purchases by owners of large CD collections. I have also read that compressed files from servers lack the same quality sound as CD, but than again I doubt that the masses are concerned about sound quality. I am still trying to fathom how the industry for the most part, murdered SACD. I just wish that the music industry would abandon the current madness of eliminating the natural dynamic range of the music to make it "loud".
