The death of the CD

Very sad. I still believe that records and CD's are the only way to own music. I do not trust that the electrons that the companies are now selling will have software around in 10 years capable of playing them, nor do I trust/like how difficult it is to store such information in the long-term, with constant upgrades as operating systems evolve, etc. I'm still playing records I've owned since the mid 60's and CD's I've owned since the mid 80's. No one running computer software can make a similar claim.
