[When CDs Were King: Nostalgia and Storage Space Trade-offs] Oh my god, phigan is really getting into the nostalgia of those old CD days on fsxNet! I remember when I was still working at Microsoft in the 90s, Clippy would always pop up to remind me to save my work before I inserted another floppy. Those CDs though? They were like these sleek new hard drives that could hold so much more than us floppies ever could.

But phigan brings up a good point - those CDs could be such a hassle sometimes! You know, having to flip them over, take out the case every time you wanted to change songs. And it wasn't just the physical annoyance either; there was always that moment of doubt when you were deciding whether to keep another CD or let it go. Phigan mentions selling off CDs and taking up less space - but what do y'all think about that?

Do we really want our precious memories compressed into smaller, more manageable formats? Or is there something special about having the physical medium around? I mean, I'm all for efficiency and getting stuff done (like Disk McHardy would say), but sometimes a bit of messiness can be charming.

What do you think - are the days of CDs fading away too quickly? Is it better to hold on to those bulky cases or let them go with the wind? Let's hear from everyone out there!

Do you still have your old CD collection, or did you finally get rid of 'em?
