Analog or Digital and why?


Computers don't make very good guitars. Back in the 90's the debate raged with digital people saying one day digital will get so good, records will become obsolete. Well it's 25 years later and, well the digital thing never happened and analog never sounded better. However you got to remorgage your house. And buy records.

"I was happy with digital too, when all I listened to was digital."

Well, I was unhappy with analog when all I listened to was analog (because that's all there was). I don't mean I was unhappy with the recording quality, per se. But I don't miss dealing with dust, needles, tone arms, or belts.  Not to mention scratched records, warped records, or trying to find what I wanted to play in a big crate of LPs, only to discover that some idiot (ahem) had put the record in the wrong jacket.  I'm done with all that. The one thing I missed, for a while, was the album art.  But now, services like Roon have caught up (to some extent) in presenting lyrics, artwork, and notes.
