Browsing the entire music collection just doesn't work the same way.
Sure, you can do a "browse music -> artists" and step through the
alphabet, but it just doesn't feel as convenient
I find this a downside too, although getting rid of shelves of CDs
makes for a much tidier living room. As I ripped each CD I also
scanned the cover, printed it, and put it in a plastic CD envelope.
Now I have a large box of CD covers which I can flick through for
inspiration. It doesn't work really well because you can't scan the
spines, but it is much neater than CDs on shelves.
I cannot use the browser for "album view" because it is so slow and
dependent on being able to use a mouse, also dependent on being in
front of a PC which I don't want to do in my living room.
I prefer CDs, for the reasons given.
For the ones I listen to less often (country, jazz, speech, and a few
others) I have them in one the CaseLogic cases, with the insert
sitting next to the CD. It makes for fairly easy browsing, and a
considerable reduction in space.
