Preserve Access to Adventures in Odyssey Episodes via CD and Download
The Issue
Adventures in Odyssey holds a special place in my heart. As a significant part of my childhood, I have long enjoyed introducing these timeless tales to new generations. However, the recently announced discontinuation of CD and downloadable formats by next spring is a disappointing step backward. This decision limits accessibility for fans who may struggle to afford a streaming service and reduces opportunities for new listeners to discover the series.
Speaking more generally for a moment, the decline of physical media is a serious loss because it strips consumers of true ownership, leaving them at the mercy of digital platforms that can alter or revoke access at any time. Unlike physical copies, which remain available regardless of licensing changes or corporate decisions, digital media is subject to removal, editing, or restriction without warning. Physical media also plays a critical role in preserving history, ensuring that films, music, and radio dramas remain available in their original form rather than being altered or lost. While digital formats offer convenience, they come at the cost of permanence, consumer rights, and cultural preservation.
For decades, Adventures in Odyssey has enriched children’s lives with engaging stories and valuable life lessons. It is essential that this content remains widely accessible—not just for those who can afford a streaming subscription.
If you are among the countless fans who cherish Adventures in Odyssey and believe it should remain available in multiple formats, please join me in urging the creators to reconsider this decision. By making our voices heard, we can show that the fanbase values CDs, downloads, and streaming alike—and that accessibility matters.
Sign and share this petition to help keep Adventures in Odyssey available on CD and digital download. Together, we can ensure future generations enjoy these beloved stories just as we did.
