Gathering dust in Case Logic binders
Still have them somewhere. Couldn’t for the life of me tell you where though.

FO rowpeterpuffer you left out "had them stolen".
I had about 200 CDs mostly bought in the early 90s. When I moved out of my old house I left most there for a few months. When I went back for them somebody had broken in and stolen them along with my 1991 Sony rack system and my two home made fly rods.

Still have all the jewel cases proudly on display like a luddite baller!!
I went through about 10 year Case Logic phase, but I kept all the jewel cases in hopes that I would some day have a house with the proper shelving to display them. That dream came true when we moved to Wakanda. Drives MrsSnow fucking nuts!!

They are in boxes in a storage unit. I told my wife I’d sell them but I couldn’t do it
-
Sold them
sold a good chunk of them. Have some still in a tub. Early SubPop stuff and imports and the stuff I couldn’t sell.

Don’t. They can be salvaged.

You are a prime candidate here for CD listening sessions revival.

Practice wife probably got rid of them.
Hell, she gave away my dog when I was on a business trip. She’d have had no issue ditching CDs
-
Literally have no idea. I know they're gone, but I can't remember how that happened. Probably thrown away during some basement cleanup or something.

Gave them to a fren or donated to Goodwill
gave away your dog? wtf

That was kind of the beginning of the end.
Mrs. Throbber v2.0 loves dogs. I think that was a Diane Lane movie, too.

You can pry my 20 year old out of style cherry wood custom cabinets out of my cold dead hands.

Never really had one. My wife ditched my albums late 90s. I got a few CDs before going online. I have over 300 songs on my Amazon player and just hit scramble

250 of the songs are Neil Young

Right around 100. I have several albums on my main account. Less so downloaded to my phone

This is anarchy!! If you wanna hear Cortez the Killer correctly, you have to listen to Stupid Girl and Drive Back first.

I stopped listening to music once Amazon Music started forcing random like-artists down my throat while I'm just trying to play an album in my car that I manually purchased from them. Outside of a random song I hear in a movie and go check out on youtube.

Gave mine to Goodwill and I have regrets.

The jewel cases exited a couple of moves ago. I don’t have any means to listen to CDs anymore. I just play DJ (ILTCMTDJ) with the streaming stuff. According to my older daughter (no pics) who is a therapist, my method has “Exacerbated and magnified my symptomology” whith reference to ADHD, so I got that going for me…
*she’s not wrong…

I have all the DLR VH albums on CD. I have several case logic books collecting dust in a closet after ripping all the cd's to a flash drive. Really bums me out that modern cars have all moved to the compressed, shitty usb files stuff. I'll have a proper home system someday...

This poll could have been "What happened to the cassette tape adapter that plugged into your DiscMan so you could play CDs on the tape deck in your car as long as the road contained fewer bumps than a AAA surface plate?" and my answer would be pretty much the same.
-
The Throbber had the 8 track plug in that played cassette tapes.

I still have about 200. I don't know what to do with them.
Generally, I just use YouTube for music. I have an iTunes account, but I have no idea what the password is.

I think you might’ve been one of my youth group guidance counselors.

Yeah, I think CD players in cars always sounded better that Serius XM or more compressed files via Bluetooh.
That said, car audio is NEVER going to be high fi. I don't care how nice of a ride you have.
For the low cost of $2000 all in, we can get you up and running on a decent 2 channel stereo with CD player, speakers and integrated amp.

I’m old enough to remember by cassette tapes on Main Street of park city before the town went to shit.

I had a buddy in high school that drove a car with an 8 track player in it. He had an adapter to go 8 track to cassette tape, then another adapter for cassette to CD. Had the whole contraption duct taped to his dash.
Terrible sound quality. Could barely tell what song was playing. This was in the year 2002.
