I grew up in the transition from vinyl to 8-track to cassette to CD.

Out of all the music I own on all of those mediums, it's pretty much all just vinyl and cassette tapes. I'm not saying that tapes are better than eight tracks or CDs. I just enjoy them.

Vinyl has a much warmer and cleaner sound. There's stuff that you can hear much better that you might never have noticed. 8-tracks were also very good at that. It's that depth of sound that keeps me just getting good albums on vinyl.

Yeth at face value.

Well that's what the audiophiles would have you think. I don't think I believe them.

I think it's the same as grease monkeys collecting old car stuff.

Don't ruin your vinyl on that trash tier Chinese turntable.

I'm not a fan of random cracks and farts from a vinyl... so yeah, definitely CDs.

I myself who loves vinyl and the way it sounds, I do agree with you on this.

One negative that goes against vinyl is the cost of buying the said vinyl. In the UK now we are looking at like £30+ for new releases while the CD version is under £10. But as months pass by, the cost of said vinyl almost remain the same price while CD's drop by 30%, 40% 60% or more.

I can go out and spend £29.99 on a phil colin's vinyl right now but the same CD version may cost £5. It's a lot of money to be saved in these hard times. You need to work out which is better for your own pocket.

Several issues on the wireless front alone.
1) Bluetooth is bad for you. Unfamiliar, but true.
2) Bluetooth is digital. That means your turntable has an ADC, sends digitally via bluetooth, then a DAC on the other end has to make it analog to drive the speakers. Doesn't make any sense.

I just like the way vinyl works. There's no preference to sound, just...

It's amazing that it works. It looks cool. That's all.

The inherent problem with Bluetooth and audio quality is not that it's digital, it's that it uses a lossy compression codec. Namely AAC and SBC.

Further, smartphones which prioritise energy saving over performance will transcode with lower quality settings to save power. Compression on the fly to high quality AAC is computational heavy and at the end of the day it's still lossless. Fine for speech but not for music in general. AAC itself is quite a good format but it will always be lossy at the end of the day.

Nowadays I always buy Vinyl that comes with a digital download so I get best of both worlds.

CD is basically obsolete. My car doesn't have a CD player and I only have one in my house. Vinyl sounds so much better as long as you have a good turntable and don't have a damaged/scratched vinyl though.

I love the idea of vinyl, but if you've ever actually listened to a digitized song from vinyl it sounds like complete trash. Every time you listen it degrades the fidelity. It does not matter how good of a condition you keep them or if use a good stylus or whatever. It's objectively a bad storage system.

CDs unfortunately are better. Smaller, less fragile, more storage, and digitize onto cloud or flash drive easily.

I think even a lot of DJ's today play from MP... what have you 3's or ... 5's or something or some other digi-format.

Which then is like.

Digital music.

It takes almost no space and I think that's the biggest pro compared to other means or technologies of music storage.

It almost takes no space up.

Buuut... if I had to stay on topic and choose I'd choose probably for Vinyl but.

Compared to CD's or DVD's, you can't fit as much data on Vinyl so.. yeah.

It's a toss up really.

Yeah digitizing a vinyl record would be the worst of both worlds and of course that sounds like trash. Digitizing is where you lose the sound and lose all the benefits of vinyl in the first place. Not a fair comparison at all

Yes a Vinyl will degrade overtime and you will hear small imperfections here and there. But as a whole, it's a lossless analog full-bodied sound. I have duplicate CDs and vinyls and the vinyls always sound better. CSNY Deja Vu spinning in the background as I type this sounding amazing.

How? It's just not...

It is, pretty common knowledge too amongst audiophiles. This is one of many articles you can find on the subject.
