Records aren't dead, so why would cd's die (they well just become more collectable!)

what a world of stuff available. I really like the archive with it's way back machine. It was fun to look up fvrl.org and see how it has morphed over the years. The stacks of books really were cool! I miss them! The Sound effects archive was fun and could really be useful for flashing up a blog. I didn' t bother to add any sounds to my blog though. On a slightly different note, Culture Grams (on our homework help page) has made the National anthem of most countries available, so we really do need a way for our patrons to plug in a headphone and also transfer to another medium, so they can use that effect in their reports.
Your last question, are CD's dying. Records have never died, there is still no better way to get a chipmunk sound than playing a 33 1/3 at the 45 or better 75 speed! CD's will only die because marketers want us to buy new and different (not neccesarily better) things, thus making CD's collectable to nostalgics.
