      ableism my ass. what i said was nothing but the truth. if this sub doesn’t like the truth, than it, and its mods can do me a favor, and get fucked. Yeah, you the mod that deleted my previous comment. go fuck yourself.

      Removed Comment … this is all pointless. why you want physical media you don’t need when 100k cds could fit on a single NVME drive is beyond me. you sound like you really really really want to live in the past. maybe you just like having the clutter of cd cases. I don’t know. but this all sounds like the ramblings of a madman. by

      I went back in the modlog and read your post. You can fit much more than just a paltry hundred thousand cds on an nvme! Of course, all flash memory degrades over time and with write cycles, and one way those failures show up is when the memory is left unpowered for a while.

      I can listen to a cd 20 years after its manufacture and assuming it’s been stored decently well I can enjoy it just like if it were new.

      I can listen to an lp seventy years after its pressing and hear it just as intended.

      I own some 90 year old 78s that playback perfectly fine on both my hand crank victorola and on a normal electric turntable with a 78 width cart and stylus.

      I have also personally seen how bad flash memory handles “cold” storage (it’s very sensitive to heat, so the quotes are there to indicate unpowered storage as opposed to storage in a freezer) and watched as the whole world begins to realize that flash ccd cells degrade with longer power off time.

      Maybe you get five years out of them before errors start to creep in.

      So, like I was saying, there’s more to the overall goodness and badness of a format than it’s objective or subjective quality. You can fit many more than a hundred thousand albums on an nvme, but will you be able to dust it off and listen to them?
