CD's or Vinyl?

Vinyl, no question. There is more music I like that is only available on vinyl vs. only on CD. And the Artwork, of course. 

Vinyl without Question. In spite of all the effort I find it much more involving. I have plenty of 35$ wonderful reissues but continue to find excellent used records in VG+ to M- condition for 3-12$. I am beginning to treasure many of my mono, mid 50s to 60s albums on London, Columbia, Angel and other labels. They have a certain magic. 

I have about the same number of albums on CD as I do on LPs (c. 4K each) and switch back and forth.  The digital is all ripped to a network drive for convenience.

I would not opt for either exclusively over the other.

@larsman Good luck with your book. I had my work published in a book many years ago. I enjoyed the process (but I’m a designer as well so…)

CDs and no gun needed lol.  LPs were great and the gatefold albums and inserts and pictures look better big but CDs have it from there.  You didn’t ask about streaming but that has overtaken CDs for me.  I have my Qobuz playlists with me to play on any system on land, lake or air.
