CDs were a total game changer but they're fragile as all hell. Everybody said that CDs were dust proof and scratch proof when they came out which was bullshit. I can't find it but the BBC's Tomorrow's World did a segment where they spread butter and jam all over a CD then put it into a CD player and it supposedly worked. Closest thing I could find was this Australian show from 1982 where they said you could bump a CD player and it would keep playing. I had a Discman and you had to hold it totally level or it skipped immediately https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Tx6TYnPat8
Vinyl is the best format of music. I was a kid when CDs and Cassettes dominated the landscape and my preference for music will always be in vinyl format
