Do you still buy CDs?

Nowadays everyone seems to download ''free'' music in mp3 form from a host of websites because they don't like to pay for it and the ones that do pay for it generally use iTunes. Don't you miss buying the CD from the store and unpacking it? Everything is so instant. I love having the CD on my rack at home. If your whole collection is on your computer and you don't back it up...it's all gone.
I'd rather spend money on the CD and burn it when I get home.
Any thoughts?

I do buy CDs and have them shipped to my country. I am a fan of Kpop and Korea has long adopted selling digital music. But physical albums count on year-end awards so to support my favorite artists, I buy their CDs. It's actually more exciting, because you don't know when they'll arrive, and as added bonus, they include posters and/or photobooks, which are for keeps. Also, CDs don't suffer the threat of being corrupted by a virus.

Yes, I still but CDs, especially of classical music, and music and songs of foreign countries and cultures. I have a collection of CDs of Chopin, Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms, Johan Strauss, and so on. I enjoy listening to them in the veneings after I get back home from work.

Whenever I want to listen to music, I just listen and/or watch the videos on Youtube. Portability of music is not a real concern for me. I don't download music and I don't really buy cds , except if it's a must have. I just don't have that many must haves. I only buy a cd of my favourite band, nothing else.
