Future of cd's?
 

Do you think that ipods'll put cd's out of business like cd's did to cassettes? Simple question.

No Because If A Rapper Makes A Cd What Are People Going To Buy It On (CD)If I Pod Had Chips Or Something Then Mayb But For Now Cds Still Run The Show

I think Ipods will be obselete before CDs will.

Nah, I think CD's will get smaller in size and bigger in storage. To the point where they are as small as iPods.

Or man will continue to waste millions on stupid things like creating IPods when CD and portable DVD players work, just for the sake of luxury, when it can be better spent to contributing to the future of mankind and curing poverty.

That is why I use my friend's IPod and don't by my own. :thumbsup:

There's so much wrong with what you just said, I won't even address them all. But, it's kind of hypocritical typing that on a COMPUTER, don't ya think? Technology betters our lives. People often say about cars, "They don't make them like they used to." I say, "THANK GOD THEY DON'T." Things improve as technology makes things once deemed impossible fairly common place. Why use a CD player than can only play 20 songs at the most at one time when I can carry around an Ipod that stores thousands of songs at the touch of a button?

Doesn't add up.

- shoots. - Because I'm hypocritical bruh. Computers are a big step in technology...makes shit easier, and the common man can get access to it. Shit like IPods don't seem necessary to me, buy a CD Player, but not everyone has the money and everything...

word. I'm tired, I don't make sense.

SAme thing can be said about a computer. It goes to what you deem "valuable" or "important." Personally, being able to listen to music is as important to me as being able to get on a computer. Music betters our lives. Man, this can be taken in soooo many different directions.

An Ipod is superior to a CD player. You have to change CDs constantly = inconvenient... An Ipod is more resourceful and practical, IMO. If you don't have a computer, then you don't have a computer.

You don't need a remote control to operate a TV. But, when was the last time you actually got up to adjust the set?

Lemme sleep on it...I guarantee ya you'll have a debate on it just for the sake o' debating if you want to.

$50 for the CD player alone, then $15 per CD and then you have to carry them all around in a $20 case.

$85 minimum, but that doesn't count the batteries.

So ya.

i bought my discman frum a guy who stole it, so it wuz just $20.

lmao @ rev wif a $20 cd case, i just pick wich cd i wanna listen 2 n thas it. or u can go 2 tha dolla sto n buy a cd case thang fo a buck.

fuck ipods, they take away frum tha sale of cds, n wen i put out cds n shit i want ppl 2 buy tha music. its aight if they buy tha cd n then put it on tha ipod tho. ipods r like $500, if u can afford that u's a rich ass mofucka, werd

iPods are never gonna be obslete, they r just to fucking raw

if anything, cd's are just gonna get smaller, and that=smaller cd players, which is better cuz its more portable, i havent bought a CD in about 2 years because of P2P programs and torrents, i have all my shit on my iPod, and once i get my 60 gig ipod for my birthday, im gonna keep it until they come up with a new one, then im gonna just trade that one in for a discount and get the new one...hmmmmm

*goes to make iPod Thread*

CD = Storage medium
iPod = Storage device that uses a stoarge medium.

So "No".

They'll make a mini-cd smaller than your thumbnail.

Cd's still have life in them... There will be a continous stream of improved versions of cd's. But it will be a long time before they are compleatly antiquated.

I-pods arnt really going to antiquate the cd...

What may antiquate the cd in the near future is the ability to purchase entire cd's online for a cheaper price due to less manufacturing costs. Eventually there will be stations where someone can go to, wirelessly connect with a hand held personal pc and seemlessly download entire cd's right out of a wall unit at an automatic charge.

This technology is already being developed, but it is still in its infancy.

But even this wont fully antiquate the cd... As the cd is a hard copy storage medium. The best hard copy storage medium man kind has in common use currantly..

It wont be going anywhere any time soon.

And remember also that cd's arnt only used for music.
