I like having physical media - both for music and movies - so I don't like hearing this news at all. I do rip my CDs to the computer via EAC into FLAC format for convenience and non-critical day to day listening, but I like having my CDs around and I don't see that changing. 
Long live CDs and LPs, and it sounds like this will be another reason I will be glad to have my Amazon Prime account!
