What was the last CD you bought

I’ve had a CD player and a DAC for many years only recently did curiousity get the better of me and I bought a budget optical cable to see if external DAC sounds better, well guess what so on something of a CD haul at madly cheap prices, £6.50 for this lot, when I get around to sorting my NAS I’ll be ripping these and they can have them back. I’m sure I’ve the Rachmaninov on LP somewhere…

I have found that they still vary fortunately. One locally is at least £2.99 and others are still £1.99. The expensive one locally clearly has a clientele who go there because of the discs they get in and price accordingly. They also do rather expensive classical vinyl. The other ones obviously just want to clear/move them and they are priced accordingly. In the more expensive one I choose carefully but in others I am very happy to explore unknown discs.

Due to some of the feedback on the classic Beatles Red & Blue albums reissue thread, I’ve decided to add these 2009 remastered versions to add to what I have already. Just missing a few studio albums now.

Yes, that’s my experience too. I also use your approach when purchasing.
