Anyway, weren't we talking about utility, not cash value?

I wasn't - see my last post - quote:

"Just in case there's any confusion, I mean "worthless" in the context
of resale value. I'm sure your CD collection (in musical terms) will be
worth just as much to you in the future as it is now - as long as
you have stashed away a few spare CD players to play them on!"

Oh, right. Yes, if you bought your CD collection as an investment, I
guess that was a bad decision :-)
