You're very fortunate!  But most of us aren't so lucky!

Well, right now (in UK) I'm listening to, and regularly play, CDs that I
assembled in 2003-2004, and stuck on paper labels. Ambrose and Ray Noble
recordings from the tony projects, and programmes I recorded from BBC radio
(in those days they still broadcast pre-1940s music). These CDs still play
on the hi-fi CD player (2009), in the car (2009 model Audi) and on my PC and
laptop (2011 Dell).
