I buy discs all the time.
Mostly from shows though, and used cd stores so either way the record industry doesnt really have anything to do with the music I buy.
I buy discs direct from bands I go to see etc. Or used CD stores, we have the best used cd stores. Heavy Rotation, Rockaway Records, Second SPin etc,... legendary cd stores.
But, I also rip many of my discs simply because as you mentioned, the 5 songs you want to hear, you have to deal with the disc and not scratching it etyc.
So I burn my favorite tracks and 120 gig external drives are cheap, so get a drive and put all your songs on it.
Back it up, burn it whatever, but have the kick ass digital library to skim through instead of going through discs.
I have well over 2k of bought discs and I still rip em to mp3 fo ease of use and to discard the songs I dont want to hear.
