I definately prefer to buy actual CDs over paid-for downloads. Like has been mentioned already, there's a few BIG problems with downloaded music. There's DRM limiting what I can do with something I paid money for, or the fact that it'll be lost forever if my HDD dies, and the complete lack of booklets and coverart.
Also, even though I can't always tell the difference, CD music is just inherently better quality than the low bit-rate stuff you get from iTunes or whatever.

Plus you cant beat shelf presence, it's awesome to have a bunch of CDs lined up on a shelf.
