There's nothing to be sorry about.... whether you use a computer, a cd player or a seperate DAC and transport should be a matter of personal preference....
I think the point being made in this thread is that there are acceptable alternatives to the traditional CD player approach....

For me, I tend to hear things I haven't heard in a long time precisely because of the computer. That is, I frequently put it on random, and so I hear things I wouldn't have thought to listen to.
Also, while I know some people sell off their CDs after ripping them (which is probably illegal), I too like to have the case, booklet etc., so I hold onto them. There's no reason why you can't read them while you computer plays whatever it's playing.
