" How has upgrading you system changed your CD buying habits?
No.
Do you spend more money on demo disks?
What is a demo disk ? I have a test LP bought second hand I can set up my
turntable with and a few free sampler CDs from labels and manufacturers but
they do not get played much.
Do you buy stuff you don't really like just becaused it is a 'DDD' CD,
HDCD, SACD?
I have bought disks and paid more to see if the SACD/DVD-A version is
different from CD only. I have not found any of these to be a guide to
quality.
Ever bought a disk just because you read some one had used it as a
listening test cd in a reveiw?
No, I occasionally look to see what a reviewer's comments are if I already
have the CD they used for a test.

Can you honestly say you just buy the music you want to listen to, or
has getting the best out of your system become an obsession?
The better my system is the more different disks I want to listen to. Any
"change" that only worked on certain discs is not an improvement in my
opinion.
If Dark Side of the Moon was only in you collection on a chewed-up C-90,
would it ever get played?
No , I cannot remember the last time I played a tape, even in the car. I
bought the SACD DOSM remaster because it was a different version, not the
same as the original Alan Parsons mix that I have on Lp and original CD.

I get to hear a wide range of different music as I am a member of a Hi-Fi
club and have often bought CDs that I would previously never dreamt of
buying because I liked what I heard. My worst CD purchases have usually
been buying albums by artists for whom I liked a previous CD only to find
the subsequent buy is not to my liking. That of course is the benefit of
e-bay as there is usually someone out there who will buy my cast offs.
