Eh, I don't think age matters. I've encountered as many analog lovers as there are digital and then those who DGAF and switch between both as necessary regardless of age. I don't think the format matters. Digital done well will sound better than analog done carelessly/poorly and vice-versa. My taste in music is all over the place as I enjoy a wide variety of music. There's a lot that just doesn't move me, so I enjoy lossless streaming when I'm not listening to content from my ripped collection. If the music doesn't move me, I switch tracks, and I'd get annoyed pretty quickly to have to keep getting up to switch tracks on a record. I can't listen to things that don't move me at length. I have to be able to FFWD.
One of these days I'll attempt to go down that road again. Need to research a good value setup that sounds great and won't break the bank, and a consistent source of vinyl for the music I like.
I think if care had been taken during the mastering process (and possibly recording in general) during the early stages of digital, this would be much less of a conversation. I find that even for music that may not be exactly my cup of tea, stuff recorded back in the 60s and 70s just sounded better. But the arguments back then were definitely valid.
If I still had my vinyl I'd certainly have the playback ability sorted out, but I'm happy with the convenience digital offers, and I certainly don't hear "digital" sound during playback (thanks SparkOS!).
Now I just need to be cool and take care of me hearing so I can keep enjoying my music into and well past my 70s (god willing).
