I discovered your channel today, noticed you focus more on CDs rather than exclusively on vinyl like 99% of the other channels on youtube and subscribed in a blink of an eye.
I appreciate the subscription, thanks! While I enjoy vinyl, CDs are my preferred format. I grew up in a household full of CDs and used to go to CD shops all the time when they were more common. I just never stopped buying them as I grew up.
@@whatimlisteningto3420 same, I grew up in Italy and started buying CDs in my mid-teens (late 90s) because they were the dominant format. When vinyl came back in style (in the last decade or so) I had already put together a decent CD collection, and saw no reason to switch to a format that was more expensive and held no sentimental value to me. I enjoy vinyl, but I feel much more confortable buying CDs...
Great video. Have over 5000 cds myself (wife thinks I'm crazy lol) of mostly hard rock/metal but all genres included. Picked up super-rare double vinyl Motorhead-No Remorse in leather cover back in 1986 or so. Would never part with as most people never knew it exists. Got it at local independent record store that long gone in Omaha Ne.USA
I have a "Deep Purple - Live In Japan" 3-cd set which is an import from Holland. It includes a concert in Tokyo, Japan and two shows from Osaka, Japan. The cd's are mint. Ebay recently sold one for $130.00.
I mix in CDs and Vinyl…. But after spending $90 on 5 vintage LPs…. I then spent $100 on 31 similar CDs on Discogs….. I LOVE the large art of Vinyl and yes I enjoy the interaction vinyl creates…. But damn 6-1 ratio is very hard for my fiscally responsible brain to pass up I tend to buy vintage vinyl if the only CD available is a remaster…. Or if the vinyl is crazy $$$
@@Sarge_72 many of the original CDs produced from 80s and 90s have better sound than remasters which are quite often badly mastered. My tip! Reconsider collecting the original release CDs!! Potentially Better sound and stronger jewelcase.
My friend do you have a go-to suggestion for CD towers to buy? I have about a whole walls worth of CDs and want to buy a number of shelves that are the same large size, anything?
I believe that’s an Amoeba Records “Out Of Print” sticker there, I’ve probably peeled off 100 of those in the past. I had a store on Discogs like 12 years ago, mainly OOP and first pressings of death, black, doom, sludge, grind 🤘
You nailed it! Those “Out Of Print” stickers are my least favorites to peel off. They never come cleanly off. That’s why you always need a thing of goo gone handy after bringing home a stack of CDs
What I really would like to see is a video on CDs about the 80s CD’s that were replacements for vinyl records from the 60’s and 70’s and which ones were actually good quality versus which ones sucked and the buyer was ripped off because the original vinyl was actually better than the CD. Or another video about Jazz albums from the 50’s and 60’s that were released on CD from the 80’s onward, and again, which ones had superb audio quality. 👨🏻
A lot of the CD's I bought when younger were mainly Dance, Trance and Club CD Singles. Are there any rare one's of those? I seem to remember 'One Step Too Far - Faithless ft Dido' being quite hard to get hold of; in fact, my copy says HMV Import.
Stilll haven't found Danzig first two albums at my local thrift store!!! Metalheads don't throw there music out , tons of flavor of the month pop and country music though lol.
I concur! I’m a 60yr old metalhead and I have never got rid of any of my vinyl/cd buys….well, the only time I lost some is when a fair few yrs ago, 1996, an ex landlord stole 2000 vinyl albums off me…police did eff all. Some super rare op stuff 😭. I’m catching up on replacing them, but unfortunately not the op’s though…can’t afford them now
I have a Japan disc of Lynyrd Skynyrd Pronounced that sounds amazing. Blows away the Mofi sacd. The cd’s warm sound has space, weight and timbre with no fatigue. Freebird sounds incredible. One of my favorite listens all over again.
Like an original print of the first My Chemical Romance album i had as a kid got me into heavier type of music very special album for me is shockingly expensive for a non bootleg copy been after a legit og pressing but alas escapes me😢
Grouper... makes me think of another band with a fishy name, Red Snapper. And if you don't have any Red Snapper for the platter, your diet is incomplete😛
How about some early cds by super famous artists that are rare. Examples Ratt s/t 1983 or Jouney In the Beginning ( not remaster) ...Abraxas Pool is another htf cd
Good question! I don't collect them but I find them interesting. There aren't a lot of albums on the format that I'm either interested in owning or already own on a standard CD. Plus, I don't have an SACD player so I wouldn't be able to listen to them. That having been said, if I found something I really wanted that was exclusive to the format then I'd definitely consider getting it. Do you collect them yourself? If so, what do you have?

Started collecting cds in 2020 or 2021 and it’s hard to find rare cds but I’m gonna keep finding more no matter what
hit those thrift stores early, that's where I'm finding most of mine.
i have started collecting CD a few monthes ago and trust me, starting a CD collection in 2020 is a bit harder than expected
oh yeah and i kinda forgot to say but im like addicted now! haha

Thanks for posting this video. This topic interests me. Also, can you publish a video about 'My best sounding CDs & why I liked them'
Thanks!
That's a nice collection, I buy off of eBay and try to limit myself to 15euros a CD with shipping. Once in a while I'll go over my limit

I have a copy of the fabled Tragic Sense EP.
The only one I've ever found. EVER.

I just saw that Ulver cd for about $6.
I know Jason from Agalloch. He's a nice guy.

@@HaakonOdinsson Op's are to much money and a risky buy. Even a nice shiny looking record can sound dirty when its 30+ years old.
That Ulver is there 3rd release

Doe anybody know if the band "the stereos" has a CD?
I hate beggining of this video, shitty vinyl is inferior to CD in every possible way
Hi! Do you know if the Hunter x Hunter Radio cd with Yuki Kaida and Hozumi Goda is rare? I’m looking to sell it and don’t know what to price it
I have Failure's Fantastic Planet on CD. Can't believe it's worth that much.
Like an original print of the first My Chemical Romance album i had as a kid got me into heavier type of music very special album for me is shockingly expensive for a non bootleg copy been after a legit og pressing but alas escapes me😢
Does anybody know, how rare is sleep's volume one on cd
Drippin' Wet (1973) by Wet Willie. Put out once by Capricorn in 1998. Worth $50-70. Original vinyl is only worth about $20. Strange.
Show the CD image better. Background sound can be distracting at times.
My most valuable CDs are things like Nirvana Nevermind and sublime 40oz to freedom. Rob zombie, slipknot.
Wow, 8 months later I’m looking at this comment I made like what an amateur

Do you collect SACDs?

Do you collect them yourself? If so, what do you have?
Phil keaggy premium jams for 1.99.
Dude only blinked a handful of times this whole video
How many of me you got most value hardest to findout about...
CD's rule
AAD cds sounds good. DDD cds and the rest sound all the same. Compressed boosted dynamic range and unnatural and boring as crap
AAD for me. They have tonal color. Remasters DO NOT. I've been in this hoppy for 37 years
Get rid of the background music!
