The CD player curse...I think I may be cursed! A while back my old CD player which I had set up in my bedroom at home just stopped working for no apparent reason, and now the one I have in my room in my student digs has done exactly the same.....seems very odd to me. Happily I managed to replace my home one a while back and now have a shiny new Sony one which is very nice- I can create a wall of sound to accompany me while I work or do what I want! The mystifying thing is neither system had shown any signs of failing before yet suddenly my music would die down and I wouldn't be able to switch it back on. So looks like I'll be replacing another one as soon as possible. Anyone have any recommendations on which sort of setup I should go for?

it might be your best bet considering your luck with disc players lately

Yeh, apparently though I could be saved- I've been allowed to take a stereo system that had been up in the loft for ages, and plan on restoring it to its former glory provided it actually works!

Indeed not, I love a bit of background noise.

I'm the opposite....if I'm concentrating on something or working on my pc, I don't like music playing cause it's distracting!
|

I prefer having something on, helps me think- can't work in silence!

I used to work in an office in a factory where they had music going all day on the factory floor.....it got annoying after a while and I'm a music lover!
|

|
Was that because it wasn't music you liked?
|
Catnapper
|
Some of it was good but it was distracting if a favourite song came on, cause I wanted to listen to it and not do any work!
|
Emperor Morphetine
|
Fair enough!
|

|
i'd listen to the song and then continue with the work after it was over Cat
|

|
That's what I used to do Luc

Ipods are handy, too- you can just switch on and tune out when deemed necessary- I've done it just to take my mind off uni work a few times!
