That's cool.

So what about music from the 90's? I think that Diamonds & Pearls was the first Prince album that I bought in CD because vinyl was no longer available (here).

A whole era went by where CD's were the only format (before mp3's became all the rage).

What'd you do then???

It looks great but I hope it has an auxilary jack in the back so it can be plugged into a component receiver because those little built in speakers don't look like they can thump too hard. lol

Don't get that one. We bought it for my Mom a couple years ago because she no longer has a turntable (but wanted to listen to some of her old records) and was just starting to buy CDs. It looks nice if you have someplace to put it, but its barely loud enough for one room and has ZERO bass response. Unfortunately is has no outs - no way to run it through an amp or add external speakers.

All the parts do work, though. CD, record player, tape player and radio.

Edit: It also has an MP3 player in jack - but its never been tested.
