EDIT: The only reason why I still had it at this point was because I could use it with other apps. However, now that my Spotify Subscription is cancelled, it doesn’t work with anything. It’s mildly infuriating because today, I can’t still use it with other apps like I was able to yesterday.
Please don’t make the same mistake I made. No one should buy this.
Is your deck is from a dollar store lol
You could buy portable DVD and CD players back in 2005 that would keep playing without a hitch even if you dropped them. Admittedly this was mostly down to them caching the content in RAM and spinning down to save battery power…
That Sony S2 life.
The skip protection on those things was unbelievable, and they were built like tanks.
Mine took a spill out the back of a pickup on the freeway and kept working like a champ.
I haven’t used a CD deck in over a decade. I literally don’t know how CDs would even sound in my car’s deck, because it’s a dead technology. I genuinely cannot believe anyone in a developed nation would still purchase a CD.
So yeah, probably?
The only reason to purchase a CD nowadays I think is memorabilia, or to support an artist/group… aside from that it’s pretty much as you say, physical media is a dying format.
Vinyl is an outlier, but even then modern vinyl players are noticeably worse than ones manufactured several decades ago
Or a very solid way of backing up important stuff like family photos, because no burglar in their right mind would steal a DVD from your home.
I get ya on the dead tech but for your info skipping on bumps stopped being a limitation on cds 20 years ago
Unfortunately I was pretty poor 20 years ago or id have been super jazzed about that.
TIL tho and I appreciate ya teaching me
