- The Compact Disc turns 40 this year, and there are already signals the format is primed for a mini revival. For the first time in 17 years, CD sales actually went up - and by almost 50 percent, according to the RIAA’s sales database.

I love CDS and will always support the format. Being buying them since 1988.
The slump in cd sales helped me build my collection tenfold. I could afford anything I wanted.
And ima keep selling CDs 💿 until the day I die I have like almost $1,000 CDs and lost track need to buy a new bookshelves from Amazon and cd jewel cases
@graemeknowles1431 Me too!! I also love CD's and I keep buying them since 1997.
love cds it no only capture the music, it captures the moments of why they were bought and looking at it just floods one minds with memories
My car is 13 years old, so the party never ended for me. In-dash 6-disk changer ftw.
Aww. Those are the best! :D
I probably spent about $300 since beginning of summer on cds. 5000 plus and counting. I enjoy creating my own sound with upscale electronics speakers etc. Love the hobby.
Still buy them for all my music purchases.
I am 65. I still have and play my huge collection of vinyl records, cassettes and compact discs on my Vector Research stereo I bought in the 80's or early 90's.
Thank God I predicted this over a year ago on my channel ;) However, I am so glad way bigger outfits are covering the inevitable!
I love this segment. I have 400 music cds, but I haven't had a stand alone player since 2006. 😰
Switched to CD in 1993... glad I made this choice. A thousand cds and 30 years... and counting.
I still buy my music on CD and rip it to lossless for playback on my 2005 iPod Mini with a 256GB flash mod.
I still buy CD, and I like 80s issues. Jewel cases are the Achilles Heel of the format!
Why? I mean why are the jewel case the Achilles Heel? They're a hell of a lot better than the revolting digipacks.
@@kurjan1 CD works well in a replica vinyl LP sleeve. Once a jewel case hits the floor it’s goodnight Vienna!
@@KRAZEEIZATION Jewel case replacements are sold for few cents...
My big gripe has always been how badly they are looked after by their owners, the inlay booklets in particular… there’s just so many CD’s I have to pass on in used stores, not to mention online stores like eBay
People are throwing away blank dvds, and I’ve been collecting them. In my car I have a DVD player, and a usb player. I like playing my own music instead of paying someone a fee every month.
Steve K are you kidding me, throwing away blank media? I can find them in a thrift store too.
I've never stopped buying 💿.
I’m buying them like crazy to these days 2023 but they are getting more expensive and harder to find especially the older ones
Really enjoyed the video😍,thank you so much for the upload.
I still buy CDs in 2022
Keep going Thanks to me and aomeba records we keeping the CDs 💿 alive and even blue rays and dvds 📀
Oh to be a teenager today with enough money to buy these high quality vinyl LPs! When I was teenager in the 1970s we had to put up with thin wabble-board albums after the oil-crisis in 1974 meant that the record industry decided to reduce the amount of vinyl they used. Of course, years later the same albums you used to be able to pick up in charity shops for 50p suddenly went up to £17.00 when unscrupulous people realised that vinyl was "making a come-back", not to mention everything that was released before 1974 suddenly becoming so 'collectable' that you were expected to fork out £40.00 upwards for LPs with loads of scratches and severely scuffed covers. Yes, these new 180 gram/Audiophile (or whatever) albums definitely have superior (warmer) sound to CDs, but they are bloody expensive, and since I do most of my music listening on my commute to work, my CD collection is here to stay for the foreseeable future; that is until I buy a new car...! =:^(
Happy birthday CD even if mid-August 2022 finds many of us less excited about the next 40 years than we were as teens and twenty-somethings back in the day.
Even hopelessly badly damaged CDs/DVDs can be brought back to playable condition with the use of a heavy duty "perfect play" machine that polishes away the scratches on the disk surface.These machines were generally aimed at professional users [archives/DVD rental stores etc] rather than domestic CD collectors but they are [if still available?] worth their purchase price.
Never stopped buy CDs, much prefer to physically own music and movies.
Splendid...Then I'm Quite Glad I'm Still Purchasing CD Albums 40 Years Later...
Congratulations on the 40th Anniversary of the launch of the Compact Disc!!
I like CD's and i keep buying them since 1997 when i bought my first Pioneer CD Player. They are durable, reliable, easy to handle, easy to store and gives years of enjoyment. More than everything CD's give very good quality sound.
I have a big collection of CD's now.
But now the problem is that it is difficult to buy original CD's in our country in Asia, because many dealer shops are closing down business.
Sorry about the late comment.
Interesting to see this now that Amazon has lost their hat in the digital music game.
Not indeed. Amazon music is the best streaming service as regards quality and price: 10,99€ a month (for montly subscription, or even less for a year long subscription) for the lossless CD quality service.
CDs and DVDs... Good old days 😍
Obviously many who have bought CDs over the years have treated them like trash. When they were introduced, there were clear instructions on how to handle them. It was, after all, a contactless technology. After 38 years of collecting several thousands of discs, there have been very few faulty pressings and only a small fraction of the rate that we all lived with during the LP era.
I don’t agree this but CD’s are very popular here in Australia because Aussies know that they can play them in their Blu-Ray players and I see them get brought all the time. CD’s are the quarter of the price of a vinyl here in Australia.
I've been buying CDs longer than that, since 1985. That was my last record albums. Really, I don't miss albums. No more turning them over and playing the other side.
CD's sound decent and clean if the master sound is done right and not blasted to kingdom come
CD Revival? That's great news to my ears!
Let’s keep them alive in 2023 and the future. Streaming will never beat CDs 💿 even though it’s renting and low quality sound 🤢🤢🤮🤮🥰
Talk to me about the Colgate and the buffer machine! Does it really repair scratches?
It works for me.
Are we due for a CD revival? I mean, they used the same technology as we do now. 16bit 44.1kHz sounds the same whatever the source. (without compression)
Exactly and most people won't be able to discern the difference between CD and Spotify/Apple Music. Vinyl and Cameras are analogue formats. CD to the average viewer offers nothing different to streaming.
@@bradavon Agreed. Vinyl has its own sound. Oh well, I bet we'll still hear people say you can't beat the vintage sound of a CD.
@@FatNorthernBigot physicality/collecting, offline play, liner notes, artwork, supporting indie artists directly, hidden tracks? Plenty of reasons people might enjoy CDs.
@@JamesTrew Physical product is a good one. Most streaming services offer an offline mode. As for artist remuneration, there are plenty of services which offer better rates. Just not Spotify.
@@FatNorthernBigot that offline mode exists doesn't negate the benefit of having a collection to hand? Liner notes/art/hidden tracks are still things to enjoy. Indie bands make CDs because... people want them and it's a good revenue source for them on top of any streaming.
I don't think anyone thinks CDs will dominate... just that it's there to be re/discovered by those that want to.
It has lossless audio files!
You can buy lossless without going to CD.
@@bradavon Not as cheap as CD, though. At least older, used copies. I'm buying up the Beatles 1987 discs because they're about a buck a piece rn! Their entire catalogue for under $30!!!
Plus they were flat transfers to disc (aside from 2). So it's as close as you can get to the master. All re-masters and streaming-available ones are edited, EQ'd, and otherwise altered.
I used to love listening to John Lennon on Pandora, but then they switched to the Ultimate Mixes - and I hate them. Since CDs are SO cheap, why not?
Again, a 14 song album for $1. When MP3's are still $1 per SONG. Let alone lossless streaming costs & the price hiking of hi-res files. smh
Bought my first cd, 1997
CD sounds better than mp3 or streaming
Depends on the streaming! Apple Music with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Rez is outstanding. Don't forget it's also about how the album is recorded and mastered. Some CDs sound absolutely horrific, dull messes, some great. But it does feel very old now.
I don't want a CD revival. They're so cheap now that buying an album seems like stealing it comparing to vinyl prices 😂 I can literally buy 3-4 CD-s for a price of a new vinyl record!
I have thousands of CDs full of material which is out of print and not available on any streaming service so I don't really need a revival.
Actually we do need a cd 💿 reveal that would make music 🎶 stores open again and get rid of streaming 🤣🤣😂😂 at least we still have aomeba records in Hollywood
I wonder and hope compact disc continue to evo. In the Gaming Production World. I believe that the memory or that the data limited by the disc size now. cap at around 10gb. BlueRay Disc maybe more. but the size of the hardware.
CDs skip, too. I have several that do and can't figure out why (it's NOT because of the NAD player). The surface of the discs look fine. With vinyl, you can at least see why a record skips.
“Prime time technology show”. Can we revive that too?
I did not know that Sony had dropped CD support with the PlayStation.
Only the new ones PlayStation 4 and 5 don’t take music CDs 💿 that’s why I always like PlayStation 3 they have wayyyyy better games and take everything ps4 and 5 suck and even worse there wayyyyy more expensive than ps3 ever was 😅
cds are fun to collect
Are those Evercade cartridges on the shelf in the background?
They are! Spotter's badge for you.
What is the brand name of the transparent CD player @5:51?
NINM Labs
Why were comments off on the privacy video ?
Sony dumped cd for now but they know their bread and butter.
I started with CD's, music, not certificates of
deposit, in 1984, with an early CD player by
Sony for about $400.00 back then, and a lot
of money for CD's themselves.
By yhe way I have had Minidiscs too, and still
have cassettes, records and even some DCC
and DAT.
. good for you I guess
These are a done deal you can get better sound than cd they aren't going any where.
Vinyl and CDs are for the winners streaming and files are for the losers
🇧 🇪 🇸 🇹 🕊 🇮 🇳 🇨 🇱 🇺 🇩 🇪 🇸
So your claim of a CD revival is based on what, besides trying to make the case for it being the new hipster fad?
Data and history?
If CD's have taught me anything, it's not to waste money buying physical copies of anything when it's also available on download.
Even today's PlayStation and Xbox uses CD...
. keep trying " bru "
I have PlayStation 2 and 3 that takes cd drives PlayStation 4 I don’t think so
I'm 24 and I think I only ever bought 2 CDs
I'm 22 and I just started collecting music on vinyl, CD and cassette last year in 2021.
I'm a huge fan of European and Japanese imports based on genres like trance, happy hardcore, handzup, etc.
I agree though, literally the only time I bought a CD before then, was for Last Gaga's "The Fame" and "The Fame Monster" back when those were still being sold on shelves.
@@salaniorgaan2296 nice! I'm somewhat interested in vinyl but I didn't start collecting any yet. The album I bought was the "here's to the good times" by Florida Georgia Line and an album of Rascal Flats
. I'm 42 , i bought a record once in my life , I was 8 lol
I’ve been buying CDs 💿 since I was younger and Best Buy was the main store for CDs 💿 they had so many back in the day and it always was a journey to go after college and pick up new CDs 💿 every Tuesday I even became a member on best for the CDs 💿
Why is it inevitable? Vinyl and Cameras are analogue formats. CD to the average viewer offers nothing different to streaming.
. and NOBODY born after 00 knows what a vinyl is .
Superior sound quality?
I sell CDs 💿 to this day better sound quality and ownership is important Streaming Is garbage 🗑 and USbS are wackkkkll CDs 💿 fir life
CDs rule!
I spent all my money on cds as a teenager
Could of used that money on a car instead decided to take bus listening to my disc man
Not my best decision haha
Let’s keep buying CDs 💿 dvds and blue rays people. Physical media and ownership will always be important. Let all these losers streamers keep renting their cheap music on their cell phones 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤣🤣😅 they will never own music and movies 😅
I'm happy for them but I pirate everything. Just goes to show you that we're not really needed as far our wallets are concerned for the industry to succeed. they call us thieves but really we help popularize a lot of content.
Cds are overrated. They skip even with anti-skip players.
Depends on the CD players Sony ones are the best ones and last longer
@robertquant1122 Agree. I had one in the early 2000s. However tugging a cd walkman and cds is old school. I have my cds ripped into lossless flac. Which sounds very good. Sure, the file size is big, but storage on media players are quite large these days.
We’ll u don’t have to talks all ur CDs 💿 with u just like 3 at a time is good 👍 is safer that they be at ur house 🏡
@robertquant1122 CDs are great but I don't want to carry any dice with me. Our phones are great mp3/flac players. I can put as many music files l on the phone and create custom playlists. I have about 5000 songs on my phone.
Anything that comes from a cell phone is cheap low garbage 🗑️ sound quality that’s why cd 💿 players are due to take them anywhere with u
