Well, nobody's stopping you. Just keep doing that then. I'm not sure what it really has to do with anything we were supposed to be talking about here, but that's every Vision Pro thread. Starts out with somebody wanting to discuss something specific about it, ends with someone crapping all over it for "reasons".Um very Weak. I ripped a pure digital copy that I have multiple backups. This copy will survive decades and the digital copy can survive indefinitely While the original backup, not necessary for use, can survive super long in its case as backup needing only raw use.
I have had maybe 2 albums in my whole life become unavailable for some reason. In those cases, I've been able to find and rip both from YouTube. It sure beats keeping track of heavy boxes of plastic discs, especially when it comes time to move them to a new place. Maybe not so simple with video games, but with music and movies it's an easily solvable problem even without the shiny precious plastic physical disc.
Still not sure what this has to do with Vision Pro really though. I can't put a CD in my other devices either save for my Mac which I still have connected to an old school SuperDrive just in case.
Seems like you're just raging about digital media in general. I think there are plenty of other threads where you can complain about that. Maybe start a rant thread in the iPod section? I think that's where the current business model pretty much started.
