Hans Snijboon CDR enthiousiast sais: - Superior Sound Quality: 16 bit digital audio hi-fi. - More space! a CDR can hold up to 80 minutes of hi-fi audio you would need at least 3 LPs for the same amount of music in decent audio quality. - No standing up to flip the record or stressing about that you will have to do that while your relaxing. Let the CD player do all the work while you relax, after all you paid for the music why so much hard work??? -They make great artwork objects, relatively large circular surface on the cdr itself and nice rectangular space on its cover, espeically if you use mini-LP style transparent plastic sleeves instead of the stupid old school style plastic CD cases. - You can produce and press your own CDR releases for next to nothing financially and without any fuzz or BUMA/goverment intervention. - Produced fast, in theory, you can make a release in one day or less. No need to wait 4 months for the record pressing plant because they are too busy pressing 40.000 LPs of Geriatric Pink Floid muzak or Justin Bieber picture discs. - You can play them in car stereos or portable CD players. - They are portable and lightweight, accessable to almost everyone, cheap to mail. - CDRs are fun things! They are shiney, can reflect rainbows when a lightbeam hits it, make great coasters, can be used as an emergency make-up mirror... the possibilities are endless! So next time you diss the CDR format think again!
