He didn't say it but it cracks me up when hipsters talk about how many "vinyls" they own. I wonder if the reason he can't determine the superiority of one format over the other has to do with the level of his equipment?  I also have to wonder how something that never left can make a comeback? Oh well, party on!
My 2c:
In my system, it sounds "digital" when the music was recorded in digital, and it does not matter whether it's on a CD, it's streamed or it was pressed onto a vinyl.
It sounds "analogue" when it was recorded on a tape - regardless if it's an AAD/ADD CD or is pressed on vinyl. Try out Kaveh Alexander's CDs (Water Lily acoustics), you will be pleasently surprised that your digital suddenly sound as if it was analogue... also, try early Vangelis CDs, they were AAD, and lack that squeaky clean controlled / restrained character.
Or, trying theChandos LPs recorded in digital, and I can't tell that it's not coming from the CD player....
