The Petra Zone

time to settle a long debate.

Jewel cases for me, stashed away in a cabinet that I never touch. All my music these days is in CD quality flac files that I listen to on a digital audio player. It has been probably 15 years since I've actually listened to a CD itself, and several CDs in my collection have only been out of the case a single time to rip them to flac, and then straight into storage.

i haven't listened to cds in like 4 or 5 years, i have some but there in a cd binder on a shelf

I use both. Years ago, my parents threw away all of our CD cases and moved them to binders to save storage space (we were in an apartment at the time). Over the years, I noticed the older the binders get the more likely they are going to scratch your discs every time you take them out, so I stopped putting new cd's in them. New CDs I get stay in their original cases or are replaced with new ones. Older CDs that are missing papers or cases I keep in the binders.

Yes

There was a man who had a dog and Bingo was his name-o

Is Bingo the name of the man or the dog?

CDs? Binders? Are we back in the late 90s?

PRETTY SURE I have all of my Petra CDs in their jewel cases, stashed in a box somewhere.

I stream all my music in the house via my NAS connected to Alexa....in the car I use USB sticks.
