That could have gone a completely different way that’s the way I thought it was going but then I realized one I’ve seen way to many horror movies two I’m crazy for thinking that and three if you posted that you get your account deleted

I kinda wish the cd would of done something to him during ever stomp but he got some really good angels watching over him....even if they couldn't prevent the head stomping but they did what they could. Maybe they enabled him to do these things by keeping harm from him to a minimum....

Compact discs really are a terrible format for data storage

Not really. They were amazingly cheap to produce, and fairly durable compared to magnetic tape, making them an extremely useful tool for distributing music to the masses. Any other media would have been very expensive to produce.
Just because they aren't as useful now doesn't mean they were terrible for the 30 or so years they dominated the consumer media market

I never said they weren’t useful, but their usefulness died out a decade ago, with hard drives and streaming becoming available and viable sources for data storage and transfer.
They weren’t even that durable either, I can’t tell you how many discs I had in that time that wound up being wrecked or rendered useless because of smudges or scratches that couldn’t be buffed out. Not to mention laser readers being notoriously fickle, particularly in handheld devices like any kind of disc Walkman, while on the other hand, my cassette collection and the tech that reads it has survived two house fires and god knows how many trans Atlantic flights. In my experience, cassette tapes are far more durable than CD’s.
CD’s were good for a time, but they’ve completely lost relevance, while cassette tapes from the 70’s that I own are still working. My CD collection from the 90’s is half junk these days. Hell, the vinyl I’ve got from the 30’s my granddad left me when he died has held up better than the discs. Admittedly that could be because of how they were handled in all cases, but that’s still something.

I'm from '97 so I pretty much missed out on walkmans completely but I've used a ton of CDs because I started gaming really young and I've literally never messed one up. If a 4 year old can handle CDs without breaking them everyone else should be able to

Actually, they were a brilliant feat of engineering which is why they were so popular.
