"I’m in burn-it-all-down, throw-it-all-out mode. Amongst the casualties is my CD collection, one steadily built starting in 1990."

1990?! Oh my god, there was probably so much gold in there!

Reading this pains my soul, Matt. Here for your CD revival.

My CDs survived a move and I have a couple hundred, mostly classical music. I think that some of the performers and performances in my CD collection aren't available now, either in streaming format or as new CDs. I am inspired by your essay to start playing them again, even if they require more effort than streaming. And I play my CDs on an ancient Bang & Olufsen all-in-one stereo with great sound. Part of the experience.
