Teens: Do you still use and buy CDs?

I love having CDs cos then you can out them in your stereo or car and hear the music better... And plus I just like having the CD and looking at the artwork and little booklet.

BQ: Do you usually listen to music on shuffle or in order?

    All the time. I never see things as outdated to begin with, but even so I don't think CD's are. They're got clearer sound, are really great to collect, and like you said the artwork and books are really fun as well. Steam Powered Giraffe's what I think of first for that - the booklets are all hand-drawn art by the band members.

    BQ: If off my computer, on shuffle, because it's fun to listen to something you may not have heard in a while.

    I don't buy CDs anymore, and I ripped the ones I had onto my computer. If someone gets me a CD that is what I do with it. I liked CDs because of the art on the box and the little book with the lyrics and stuff, but at least my music never gets scratched now.

    BQ: Usually in order.

    Definitely. I generally listen to music on my computer or my iPod, but I like having the physical CD. Also, my friend and I are constantly exchanging music, and we'll make each other mix CDs with our favorite music on it.

    BQ: Shuffle. I like not knowing what song will pop up next. Plus, with shuffle you get more of a variety. I have my songs grouped by genre on my computer, so listening to it in the regular order gets a little boring sometimes.

    Nope. Only if I had a car maybe. Even if I had a car, I would connect my iPhone to the radio or just burn music on a CD and call it a day lol. But it's good sometimes to have the actual CD of the music. The last time I bought a CD was in 2011. It was Coldplay's "Mylo Xyloto" album.

    BQ: no, If your talking about listening to music with the shuffle sign on. But yes, if your talking about listening to music in different order.

    No, the last CD I bought was in 2010 and even then I didn't really use it.

    BQ: Shuffle, things get boring when you listen to music in order all the time.

    My boyfriend makes me mix CDs <3 it's really adorable. Most of my music is on my computer, though.

    BQ: It depends, usually on shuffle though, but if I'm listening to a playlist that's in a specific order, I'll turn off shuffle.

    Yes! I like them because it feels like I actually own that music instead of just having it on my iPod.

    BQ: It depends. When I first get an album, I will listen to it in order. After that it just goes on shuffle.

    I do not buy CDs, but I do use the ones I already have.

    BQ: I always listen to music on shuffle.

  • Not really. I don't use my stereo at all and I usually don't like EVERY song on a CD.

    BQ: Shuffle

    Yeah I burn CD's on my computer and use them in my car, because I don't have an AUX port where I can listen to music through my phone.

    BQ: In order
