When I have seen people listing their systems lately

I am buying a Krell Cipher before they stop making them...thousands of irreplaceable CD's to listen to!!

I'm so tired of reading "SACD is dead".  I've got over 100 of them and Arkivmusik lists over 2500 titles for sale and dozens of new ones every week.  Perhaps it's just we Classical Music lovers and the Japanese market but that appears to be enough of a critical mass to keep the format going.
   I much prefer SACD to downloads.  Pop the disc in, out comes high res music.  No fiddling with computer nonsense.  I do enough of that at work and when I want to chill at home I have great sound without having to worry about my internet connection, without having to do the daily computer update or have Apple try to sell me anything.
   I think download sales are peaking.  People are either streaming or sticking with Physical Media. 

I stream to find new music. Once found I buy the CD. I rip the CD to both a MACBook Pro and MAC Mini as AIFF. ALso have a disc spinner and use it often when not wanting to boot computer. I like to own physical copies, as this is the way I have bought music since I was 16 (50 years ago).

One thing I should mention, i have several systems and use the Macbook Pro as the source for all but my main system. Great to be able to take your entire music library with you.

I just realized that my last post was my 2nd here with basically the same message. This being my third, I think it is time for me to go listen to some music. I often tell my friends that I can be quite  self effacing, however in their company that attribute is not required.
