My first CD player was a Sony, way back in the early 1990's when CD's were just getting traction. I'd bought my first high-end system. Eventually, I drank the TAS Kool Aid of that day saying that the whole CD format was junk and that I should stick with analogue. I sold my player to somebody else. I still have the first CD I ever bought back then: "Dream Of The Blue Turtles" by Sting. It is actually physically different than CDs today: the outer edge of the CD tapers to a thin, sharp edge.
