Does it make sense to introduce/buy CD-only player

I have been waiting for the last 2 years for the new Spectral cd player. It's still not out, though supposedly it's only a few months more (heard that before)... But now I'm thinking: with the multiplicity of "play-all-platforms" (ie SACD, MP3, etc) players at the high end, am I buying an expensive dinosaur? Yes, I have a great turntable, but I don't think CD players will assume the same exalted status. Conversely, maybe Spectral's CDP is being delayed because of similar concerns about early market obsolescence. Reactions?
