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.

Digital was lucky that night, that bus station can be a rough place.

One weekend when my digital came in late it was chopped into tiny bits, just ones and pieces so small you could call them zeros.

May all his pieces go back together and pass for analog :^).

It would all sound so much better if our ears were analog! What a shame that all mechanical hair movement in the cochlea is converted to nerve impulses in order to be sent to the brain (i.e. an analog to digital conversion, with individual nerves either firing or not).
