Still waiting on an update that allows PS4 to play CDs

You would really listen to Cd's on your PS4? I buy Cd's but never listen to them, i always rip them and use digital.

Good-Smurf2747d ago

The formats that still worth
playing in physical form are
Vinyl,SACD,Reel to Reel.
CD was completely ruined by
loudness war and poor mastering.

Good-Smurf2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

Why bother with CD while
Media player already supported FLAC?
You just rip the songs from CD to FLAC files.
I listened to plenty of my Vinyl rip and CD rips in FLAC on PS4.
PS4 will play 24 bit 192 K files too.

I used to buy CD's when they where the best digital audio quality available... (44.1k/16bit)
But due to my digital expectations, and as the file size's aren't anywhere as big as films, today I prefer to download HiRes audio formats.... Not MP3's,aac's .. but uncompressed (in some cases FLAC) 44.1/24 , 96k/24 ect ...Something an audio (Red Book) CD cannot provide...
As for my old CD's, Ive just ripped them uncompressed.... For the price of a 2tb hard drive , allowing access to a 2000 or more uncompressed CD's is awesome.
To add.. Not that I have 2000 CD's ... But to add it up, generally a packed CD is around 700Mb.... so really its a lot more you could fit.

StormLegend2747d ago

Use Spotify or use your Phone for music. You can also plug in a USB and listen to music off of that.

kraenk122747d ago

Spotify quality is terrible compared to CD quality though.

yezz2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

@kraenk12

What? So you're one of those audiophiles that think 320kbps is terrible?

There are of course some songs that sound a bit worse but majority are good quality. Maybe you've only listened to the free version that doesn't have the extreme quality option..

S2Killinit2747d ago

They are doing more updates than they used to.

spaceg0st2747d ago

Hahaha. In the meantime, throw in a VHS tape and chill.

Skankinruby2747d ago

Lol I'm sure you're joking, but I still buy cds because they're cheaper than mp3. I don't listen to them but I upload them into my phone

Gwiz2747d ago

Music stores have been disappearing left and right,that pretty much started after people hopped on the iPod and iTunes transition.As a disc format still relevant just no longer for music.

2747d ago
Silly gameAr2747d ago

I actually agree with that. Wouldn't mind ripping some CD's to the HD.

Retroman2747d ago

Uh-huh, "performance", eh ?
More like "hopefully patches the probable 4.01 Jailbreak".
Sony, at least don't lie to us... You are calling it "performance improvement" since the PSP hacking came to be.

UltraNova2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

He should appoint him self CUO (Chief Update Officer) of Sony...shm

UCForce2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

That was a long time ago. You shouldn't be entitled that much.

Edit : No, you are just disgusting that what. Mocking isn't funny to be honest. I hate mocking people.

sdcard4gb2747d ago

Why so, exactly ? :)
I'm just mocking Sony, did you actually think I was giving them serious instructions ? XD
You guys are funny)))

NohansenBoy2747d ago

I'm sure the Sony CEO's are wiping their tears away with their ¥10,000 bills from people mocking them over this.

InTheZoneAC2747d ago

you should mock your own name...

sdcard4gb2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

It's not my name, it's my login, dude XD
I make them up depending on what's surrounding my person.
I know you are trying to make witty comeback with me, but you aren't really suceeding, sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ILostMyMind2747d ago

@sdcard4gb
Nice way to choose a nickname.

UCForce2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

Don't try think you are internet hero here, buddy. You are just disgusting with that mocking of your.

Edit : "sign" People angry with you for good reason. Let be honest, pal. What if other people piss you off ? One day, you will be piss off by someone who is much better than you. And you will lose your mind. So don't get cocky.

sdcard4gb2747d ago

Don't think I'm mocking Sony for anyone BUT myself XD
I find it amusing, that's all.

But I didn't think I'll make so many people butthurt over such a innocent comment ! :O
This is truly something much better then the reaction I was going for - always nice to know there are insecure and angry internet people to make nervous, makes me wanna continue on XD

pyroxxx2747d ago

would they not close the store in that case,.. I still am on 4.01

sdcard4gb2747d ago

Dunno, I got mine on 3.55 :3
Didn't touch the console for over three months, bought it exactly for piracy, not gonna be buying 60 dollar games living in a country where 200 bucks is considered a avarage wage, so that's that :3

1nsomniac2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

He's talking about the new PS4 4.01 jailbreak that a Chinese team of hackers recently demonstrated at a hacking convention.

So yes he's probably 100% right & this is just Sony blocking the exploit. You guys having a pop at him are the guys not looking very smart for either misunderstanding & running your mouths off or just not understanding how simple business works.

Quetzll2747d ago

Thank you for being the sound commenter for this thread. Everyone who replied missed the point the OP was making, even though OP did sound a bit pretentious.

The replies reminding why I should stop visiting this site. But yours gives me hope.

Remember: if your comment doesn't contribute to the article, then your aren't helping anyone.

Literally every comment for this thread, other than yours, pyroxxx and the OP do not contribute to anything.

trooper_2747d ago

Just stop it already rookie.

Was hoping for an update to minimize psvr left drifting screen. :(

akurtz2747d ago

you can fix that yourself

NohansenBoy2745d ago

That doesn't sound very plug and play.

lxlkuyaboilxl2747d ago

@GrimDragon With the camera facing you, try centering yourself with the left most camera lens. Also, try powering off your PS4 every time instead of putting it in Rest Mode. Test that out for a bit at least to see if there's a difference.

GrimDragon2747d ago

Number one no you can't permanently fix it yourself number two they know it's an issue and it's why they give you the option button to try centering it but it's a temporary fix. Number three Iam not the only one to have this problem PlayStation forums and Reddit users have been complaining about it since launch. If people keep acting like it's not a big deal it won't get fixed.
And believe me I tried everything in the book and it cannot be fixed. I have to press option button every two minutes while playing and if I forget I have to turn off visor complete to recenter properly.

Getting sick and tired of all the know it alls on this site that don't know sh!7. I wipe my @ss with your down votes.

OB1Biker2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

Seems to me these guys were just trying to help.
Just saying

GrimDragon2747d ago

Sorry that comment was for akurtz and all the @sshats that agree with him.

kraenk122747d ago

Just listen to what the other guy told you about...which is just what akurtz referred to and why all us @sshats agreed with him.

GrimDragon2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

@kraenk12 god dammit! My point is it's not something you can easily fix and call it a day the most you can do is temporarily keep it from shifting left! It's a very real, very annoying problem people seem content to ignore or act like there's this full proof solution when there isn't any and if you don't get that. Than you get the "oh mine is working perfectly crap" yet hundreds of people are reporting this problem including myself. So either I got a bad visor from a bad batch or Sony needs to put out a patch either way some solid information on a very real problem would be appreciated. But instead no one wants to address it and it infuriates me.

Sony, I need a faster way to delete people from my friend list. The current methods has too many steps, too slow, and to cumbersome. Please for the love of god and all humanity, give us a way to delete multiple people from our friend list.

ILostMyMind2747d ago (Edited 2747d ago )

... and multiple messages too.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv726h ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii8h ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast5h ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM2h ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

WRATH: Aeon of Ruin review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "It seems reasonable to suggest most people have a preferred takeaway establishment. The one that you always find yourself coming back to, much to your waistline’s despair. Should that takeaway temporarily close, you’ll doubtlessly have to expand horizons and go elsewhere. Sure, the food from a second choice might be palatable, but it’s never the same, lacking in zest. This analogy can be applied to the 3D Realms published WRATH. It’s powered by a modified version of the Quake engine, and even plays like ID’s masterful shooter at times, but it’s lacking that all important crunchiness. It isn’t completely soggy, but there’s not much bite either."
