Which one do you use more to listen to Roxette?
Of course Audio CDs have better quality,but I use mp3s most of the times.
It’s great to listen to C! B! B! or HAND during typing an email or other works.Also it’s easy to
listen to songs of different albums without limitation.
Mp3 is more useful.

the best is to have the audio CDs (original) and the mp3s, too, you can decide.
The mp3s are with lower quality than the CD (it depends on the compression) but yes, they are more useful. You can make own compilations, and it is more easier to listen to any music when you have it in mp3 format on your PC (or on CD).
On the other hand - the audio CD... It is playable on computer, so you can listen to HAND or CBB while writing an e-mail! And it is playable on stereo, too. If you don’t have PC but stereo of cource it is better to have the audio CDs.
I prefer listening to mp3, while I have some things in mp3 but not on audio CD (eg. Dance Passion, live recordings, Rarities,....) and it is easier. that doesn’t mean that I’m against the CD, no.

audio CDs beyond any doubts! I like the original work, glossy booklets and high sound quality. Besides, I am not that often in front of PC, while I carry CDs everywhere in my freestyle :)
