Why don't they make ide/scsi CD-changers no more??

Post by plucky duck »

You fellas know the ones I'm talking about, where you can slap in 4-6 CDs into the CDROM at the same time and cycle thru the cd with buttons or via software. Why don't they make them no more? Too expensive? Too bulky?

I'm just lazy to switch CDs!! :P
