Nah man. If you care about your CDs you should already have them ripped to flac format, so the disc rot can't kill them. Convert to mp3 vbr0 for tossing them on a player or your phone. Listen with whatever ear buds you like.

It's not like vinyl or casette tape, where the analog nature of the storage medium is going to effect the sound. CDs are pure digital, just a carrying case for the files on them.

Or buy your music from a source that offers both. I have flacs from bandcamp, but also CDs from those same albums
