I still play physical CDs every day. Still buying them, although that is getting to be more difficult, sadly.
I have a nice Rotel CD player at home and a CD player in my vehicle. I got a great CD/DVD duplicator for $50 used so all those CDs in my truck are easily disposable copies of my originals that stay at home.
I should rip them all but that is a lot of work. I did rip many of them to 192 khz mp3s a while ago so that has been enough so far.
Streaming is nice but the fuckery will continue and they can miss me with that shit.
This made me remember that my five CD disk cartridge in my Volvo no longer works ... it's great to have access to physical content but mechanical things break down too.
Yes things do break down. They still sell CD players. Scamazon has many portable ones including Sony. I bought my main home CD player art worst buy ( magnolia).
I recently bought a portable CD player that outputs a FM signal. So I can play my CDs on the radio now. Which can replace a car CD player. Studebaker brand.
But IDK about new car audio with a CD player. A quick look at Crutchfield shows they do still sell CD players and DVD players.
