I am not alone, not even close.

The link below has tons of anti-CD quotes : the first one is from Harry Pearson of the Absolute Sound, the second from Tom Jung of DMP Records, Mark Levinson comments are at the end, plus there are many, many more inbetween. I would say most professionals hate CD, but many don't say so in public to be politically correct. I wish everyone told the truth about how poor CD really sounds. Neil Young is very vocal about how bad CD is. I believe most audiophiles also hate CDs.

CDs and MP3s are for the masses not for audiophiles.

If you can accept the compromises of the CD format even from $15,000 CD-only players I am happy for you. But never pretend that everyone can stand the sound of CDs because it is not true.
