Question for the older folks- did you ditch vinyl when cd arrived?

Not right away.  I kept my Thorens player and vinyl until I purchased a Pioneer PD-65 elite CD player and then decided I could get by with just one physical disc format so I stuck with CD, which offered the benefit of being played in my vehicle.  Did not switch solely to streaming until Roon came along.

It was the late 1970s, I first listened to a CD at my local stereo dealer.  It was an album I had in vinyl.  Sounded GREAT (without an immediate reference point.)  When I got home I put my vinyl on the turntable.  It happened to be a Sheffield labs direct to disc.  Made me realize that the CD was NOT as good as my D2D vinyl.  Never did buy a CD.  To this date I still listen to vinyl.  No streaming or anything else.  I do have a very high end system.  Maybe this is necessary to hear vinyl properly.

@kronos96 whenever you first heard a CD, it wasn’t late 1970’s. Just saying- 

Dismissing streaming, in my opinion, is a mistake. Let’s say I agree that vinyl is better (sometimes it is, sometimes it isn’t), yet with streaming you have a huge library of music to sample and decide if you want to pick it up in vinyl. There are plenty of recordings I like enough to have in my Qobuz library, but not enough to buy on vinyl. A secondary benefit of digital- I do not touch my turntables after having a 2nd drink. Don’t want to risk the stylus on either of my tables. 

No.  In fact I took advantage of a few others disposing of collections to pick from theirs.  I ended up with about 3,000 but reduced that to 1,000 "favorites" when I moved a few years ago.

Yes I did, had a VPI, had lots of fun with it but got frustrated with dealing with Vinyl. Having to deal with flipping the album everytime. I can now same the same thing with CDs, happy we don’t have to deal with physical formats. Would still enjoy have a good turntable again for the occasional nostalgia of being able to compare sound quality with analog vs digital.
