Does Age Matter?


Having read and contributed to several threads on the digital vs analog controversy I developed a nagging itch that suggested it is older people that prefer analog and younger people digital. If this is the case than there is most definitely a nostalgic element to that opinion. Perhaps we can answer that question. I will go first. Please do not ruminate on the differences. Age and preference, digital, analog or both! We'll tally the results at the end. 

I am 67 and like Both analog and digital.

I can not tally results if I do not have your age. If you do not feel like leaving your age for what ever reason please abstain from this discussion. Please answer for yourself not your kids. As a kid I got loads of stuff the fascination for which lasted 10 minutes. They can answer a similar thread 10 years from now. I know loads of young people as a physician and the vast majority of them only listen to their telephones. Out of 1500 patients I know only one other that listens to vinyl besides myself. 
I am seeing an interesting trend in older people indicating that the convenience of digital is the main factor that drives their choice. I though that would have been the attitude of younger folks. Go figure. I do let the computer run when I'm in the shop or just don't want to be bothered where as I am usually listening more intently with vinyl. But that does not mean I do not listen seriously to digital programming.
My vinyl and digital collection is pretty even. When I want to read and listen to music, it is either digital or FM radio. When I just feel like pampering myself and just listen, it’s vinyl all the way. With that being said, it’s 75% digital and 25% vinyl listening.  I am 67 years young. 
I am 33 and am about a 80/20 split on analog vs digital with my main system. While at the computer, its digital all the way. Past year or so I have found myself enthralled with vintage Japanese gear and have expanded my options significantly.

Dacs are fun, but I find myself wanting to tinker a bit more with various arms and carts. About 2k records and 600+ cassettes and counting.
