I'm honestly curious, since I hear this a lot (that users don't care about/need a cd/dvd drive)... Do you plan to just throw out any current CD/DVD media you own then? Or to re-buy it digitally?

I guess the floppy to CD stuff never affected me, since I was technical enough to get my data off the floppies, young enough that I didn't have much in the way of media on floppy, and because I can still plug a floppy into my computer anytime I want, if I really need to use it. Seems like, especially with DRM, that's a much different proposition now.

I guess I get not caring about the use of it for the future, but I hate seeing currently usable hardware disappear today because people won't use DVDs in a decade (and yes, I understand you can get an external drive).
