CD's or Vinyl?

@laoman   I actually have an excellent system and take very good care of my Vinyl.  Many LPs going back to the 70s that are still in great condition.  IMHO, it's virtually impossible for Vinyl to stay pristine over time.  Not to mention the few pops & clicks that arrive on almost any new vinyl purchased.  As for CDs having a "glare" in the sound, I would have to turn your comments back to you.  Maybe you just have a poor digital rig?  All things being equal, and they usually aren't, I don't have the golden years that can appreciate the glorious life-like sound that only vinyl brings to the table.  Sucks to be me I guess.  Cheers. 

Vinyl by a mile for me 

Playback Design MPD8 has always sounded ok to me. 

@jl35 would you please cite sources for your research? I'd be interested to read whatever article (or articles) that information was derived from.
