i can't get this site to load on a 2016 macbook: https://www.cdbaby.com

i've tried it in safari AND chrome. i get: "Safari can't find the server". i disabled any extensions, rebooted. nada. but... on my 2015 macbook pro (same sierra version), the site opens fine.

any ideas, anyone? 2 macs, same OS, same network...
 
& this is the error message in chrome:

This site can’t be reached
www.cdbaby.com’s server DNS address could not be found.


ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
[doublepost=1496932010][/doublepost]and, to answer my own question... changed my dns settings to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, and the site opens. thanks me!
