My reaction back then (late 80s) was pretty much the opposite of yours.
To me CDs were the promise of clean digital noiseless audio, without needing to go through the expensive hifi jungle to find something that sounded decent. I welcomed it with open arms. It felt like a way of democratising high quality sound.
I was super excited because it allowed me to experience music in a much better way.

For me it was a huge upgrade from casettes, I bought a portable CD player as soon as I could afford one so I could stop copying stuff to cassette to listen away from home.
