You are not meant to compost CD's. They are designed to be recycled by attaching them to pieces of string and using them as art and/or bird scarers.

As for buying the 'best hifi in the world' and not being able to hear the difference between lossy and lossless. Well I buy mine for form and function and because people on this forum 'made me upgrade'. I also like the sound and how it extracts emotion from the music.
