They're in op shops everywhere: people are trying to offload them on buy-nothing groups and Facebook Marketplace, etc.
Do you still listen to CDs or do you just stream while they gather dust?

Open a few boxes in your storage unit or garage and chances are you will stumble across some CD's gathering dust, but what on earth do you do with them? 💿📀

It seems unlikely that they will experience a resurgence in the same way vinyl records have.

On 102.5 ABC Perth Afternoons today, Jo Trilling will be joined by cultural commentator and writer Simon Collins.

So tell us below - what became of your CD collection? Then join the conversation on 102.5 ABC Perth Afternoons from 12:30pm.
