They actually do hold up better than CDs in many cases, depending on the hardware that you've been using. People have caught on to this over the past fifteen years, how (surprise!) CDs also get shitty and break down over time with repeated use.

When I want a "master copy" of some recording for personal use however, I almost invariably prefer that a CD copy should exist, or be manufactured. The Compact Disc strikes the right balance between portability, fidelity, and what I can only desribe as "non-ephemeral" status which computer files have. The Compact Disc, in the service of being the physical manifestation of an album, asserts that the album should still have an inert physical presence, independently of whether it can be made to play music. This is comforting.

Collecting

I collect for large album art. If I have it on vinyl, I have it digitally too. Trying to own more of my library.

supports artists, higher sounds quality, something to collect etc.
