no, they technically do have better sound quality than standard MP3s but for portable devices mp3s are better as you don't tend to get the best sound quality anyway through portable devices and if you really want top quality you can use OGG

is it? i like cds because the sound quality is usually better.Xeros606
CDs will always sound better than MP3s. Given that you're getting a real CD, and not a burnt CD. MP3s are watered down CD rips. If you're talking FLAC, then thats a different story.

I like purchasing CDs too. I like having a hard copy and the CD album art and all that crap.

I'm EXTREMELY fussy about sound quality, I need to have the actual CD and then rip it in 320kbps or else I'll hear the difference.

I've always thought that having a hard copy is better.

The only reason I buy cd's these days is because I just want to actually own a hard copy and have the art work, but only albums that I think a really good... definitely not to actually listen to them. Except maybe in the car.
