Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Off Topic OT - Linn stops making CD players

Its a good thing to turn the selling of their network gear...
After a while they allways can say:"the customer want that we continue manufacture CD player"

But on the other side, why not "just" having a good network player?
People who likes "hardware" means a CD, have to buy it anyway and after stored it on the network,
the customer still have the physicaly CD in his hand for nostalgic reasons.
As long as the quality of their networkplayer as good as their CD player,
its just a decision of what the customer likes more.
The only thing is to take care that all data correct stored on the network.

If they still service the player its not a problem.
Anyway its a way to the future, or do somebody using a floppy disk instead of a USB stick ?

M also decide do NOT making a Bluray player, its just a matter of time when its obsolete.
Its better to concentrate their manpower to get the best out of the stored data to have a good sound.
