When is digital going to get the soul of music?

I have to ask this(actually, I thought I mentioned this in another thread.). It's been at least 25 years of digital. The equivalent in vinyl is 1975. I am currently listening to a pre-1975 album. It conveys the soul of music. Although digital may be more detailed, and even gives more detail than analog does(in a way), when will it convey the soul of music. This has escaped digital, as far as I can tell.

This is definitely yesterday's news folks. . . lots of CDPs out there that are fully emotionally involving.

there is no emotion in a machine. an emotion is a reaction from a human being. music conveys the emotion, but the reciver expresses it or feels it.

it is not the function of a "machine" to convey emotion.
sound quality is not necessary to experience an emotion.

a simple medium, such as a table radio will suffice, as will a personal stereo which can be purchased from a mass merchandiser.

as poor sounding as a recording may be, it is still possible to receive that which music is communicating. while you may not like the sound, the message can be communicated in spite of the sound.
