Not so, there is lossless compression FLAC (free lossless audio codec) for one....no loss in quality at all. That is why I recommend it. I still have my CDs in a tote or three. Having all that catalog of music readily available and controlled by an app on any device on my network means not having to get up and hunt for a disk. It changed my music listening drastically.

Oh, and hard drives are cheap...I have three loaded in case one craps, but none of mine have in my 30 years of computer use.

Something to think about anyway.
