I spent far too much money on CDs (singles and albums) that I simply never listened to. I have boxes and boxes of them and don't know what to do with them!

Same here but I am quite proud of them even if I don't play them - they are a collection!

Well I did like to get a proper, crisp, highest quality rip of the song off of the CD back in the day - that was refreshing. But nowadays the quality of downloaded tracks is so much higher than it was. Still, I will buy the odd retro track on CD single if I can't find it to stream - the one CD single I've bought this year was Chef "Chocolate Salty Balls (PS I Love You)"

Where do you even get them from these days - just Amazon?
I mainly get vinyl and the odd vinyl single in charity shops! |

Really I should start putting all of my old CD singles on there. Wonder if I have any rare ones. Actually just remembered I picked up a couple of those Elvis re-issues back in 2005, wonder what they're worth now, or even where they are in my collection

I got the George Michael one of December Song with an envelope which could be a collectible in 2009 I think it was?

QUOTE(Robbie @ Dec 19 2017, 09:40 PM) Would they sell in sufficient quantities to make it a worthwile exercise? There's a generation of music consumers growing up who have not got into the habit of buying physical product. Plus at £1 a time a CD single would be such a loss leader that unless that could help drive album sales (not streams) by changing consumption habits of teenagers in general record companies would not likely be interested. Oh yes I agree it would be daft to do it, but it'd be fascinating to see whether people would buy them |

Think there's less in HMV and the likes now too which effects sales!
