tuberculin, a man of my own heart. That is exactly what I did. I burned all the CDs to a hard drive and traded them in for vinyl, about 3 thousand of them. What fun.
Hobbitinablender, I can understand how you got that username. My response is, who cares. There is plenty in this thread to chew on. These are all people who love to listen to music. So, it really matters to them in comparison to the general population. I chose 60 for a reason. I probably should have split the group at 50, but here we are. Everyone over 60 grew up with vinyl. By the time the younger group turned 20 digital started to take over. Their experience with vinyl would have been much more limited.
Older people seem to prefer digital because it is more convenient. Many of us run both but very few older people do Vinyl only. The vinyl only population is the younger guys! The group with unquestionably the better hearing as we all decline with age. My hypothesis was 180 degrees backwards. Live and learn.
