No. Though I still buy cds, I rip' em into the Zune and they all sit in a closet in my living room. I think it's meant to be a jacket closet, but instead there's close to 600 cds in there, all in towers. My wife wants me to clear it out so we could put coats in there. She says I never listen to them, you should put them in storage, but I've resisted so far.

I only listen to cd´s, tapes and vinyls. Sometimes i put some cd´s on my computer and then on my iPod but 99% of my collection i play it on my turntable or cd player.

Nah! I play vinyl, but CD's get ripped and streamed through my computer to the stereo, it's just easier.

I still do but I find myself gravitating toward loading them onto a flash drive more and more. It's just more convenient for the car which is where I listen to the vast majority of my music.

Yes, still buy and play lots of CD's,
but will rip them with a program like dbpoweramp, if the song titles do not appear on any PC media players.

Still buy and listen to all day long. At home, in the car and at work.

When I'm home, it's all iTunes. But as I acquire CDs, I listen to them in the car and whatnot. Then, when I fill a tote, they go into storage and I start with a new batch.

I would listen to them more often if they weren't in storage. That'll change when we sell this place and buy a bigger home.

I don't listen to CDs much anymore. I mainly listen to my mp3 players and, if I'm at my computer, Spotify or Youtube. When I do listen to CDs, it's on my little boombox while doing yoga, so it's nothing heavy but quieter and atmospheric stuff so I can concentrate better.

Yep I still do, especially in the car. If I take the mini van, I pop in a cassette (the drawer underneath the passenger seat is full of them.).

I only really listen to physical CDs in the car. Other than that it's via my computer or to a lesser extent my iPod.

All the music that I've ripped is backed up in multiple locations, which may seem like overkill, but my it proved to be worth it earlier this year when my laptop and one of my external hard drives was stolen. Rather than having to go through the arduous process of re-ripping everything, it was just a simple matter of copying it onto my new laptop from the other hard drive I use as a backup.

I rip a disc to mp3 as soon as I get it. I never play directly from cd anymore. Everything I have is mp3/iPod compatable, so I like taking a large library with me wherever I go.

I have everything loaded to the hard disk, which I prefer. And CD's perhaps for car.

cds while mobile in my Dakota (don't have external audio input)
Ipod while mobile in the Kenworth (gravel pits/roads and construction zones are too bumpy for cds)
at home it is mostly vinyl and even an odd cassette tape here and there.

I still listen to my cds (as well as tapes and vinyl). I do have an MP3 player, but thats just to put my favorite tracks from a cd on so i have easy access to those songs if im away from my collection.

Nope.

They're all sitting in a huge dusty pile on a shelf at the end of my bed. A few nights ago, I knocked everyone of them into the floor in my sleep, and they're all probably broke now. Didn't really have the heart to check.

Not really. At home I listen to vinyl. If I don't have it on vinyl, I will listen to it on Rdio or Spotify. I've ripped pretty much every cd that I have, and they are all uploaded to google music and amazon music, so if it isn't on Spotify or Rdio, I play it from one of those. On the go I just stream from my phone from one of the 4 mentioned services. Holy crap I have issues. I pay for Rdio, Spotify and Amazon.
