Such a harmeless article and so much dust kicked about... 😏
And yet again - IT ALL DEPENDS - !
Just now playing SANTANA, ABRAXES, on MoFi CD vs MoFi LP and...
LP sounds a bit more 'alife' / a bit different, all be it better.
The CD here is definately NOT better, special jewel case, gold plated CD back and all.
I could mention some of my small collection where clearly the reverse is the case also.
Case in point, Abbey Road by the Beatles (I'd mentioned) were the CD, no lift-up special MoFi jewel case, no gold plated CD back, et al, but sounding more dynamic. Eh!
MAYBE some well kept older, than my more recent, LP pressing will change this? Well, maybe and than mabe NOT.
So call it mastering, call it what ever, - IT DEPENDS - , as I said.
So why keep fuzzing about what's better? 🤔
It depends, case by case, as an LP can sound warmer, richer, fuller etc. and yet the CD can STILL sound better, all in all - and as pointed out, the reverse ABSOLUTELY can be the case well.
Sorry for spoiling the arguments, eh. 🙏
