Lies. CDs are useful for ripping to FLAC and then putting away in a box somewhere never to be seen again.

Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!
About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.
Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness
Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!
Ps. Sub to all my comic strip communities…

That's the main reason I buy cds. It is near impossible to get a flac copy online for some artists.
Hey................................ What artists are we talking about?
Or sell it to a used music store so someone else can repeat the process.
I must be uninformed. What is FLAC, and should I be using it?
Yes. MP3 was good for making a really small file but it lost quality, flac makes a small(ish) file but no audio information is lost at all. With current storage capacities its worth it.
They're useful if opsec lets you bring them into secure areas. Sealed. And they only get to leave shredded.
Better for actually owning music instead of a license
Back in my day, we used vhs. And I'm not even old.
i actually burned a cd yesterday.. a boot disk for a utility.
only to find the system i needed it for didn't support legacy boot, and the boot image didn't have uefi support.
i had to take out an audio cd to burn it.. so yea, cd do get used here.. occasionally. probably been a year or more since that audio cd had been played.
