Considering that MOFI made digital copies of analog tapes for years and everyone thought the whole process was analog, I think that we can at least say that like analog, there is digital done right and not so much…
It is pretty much impossible for an analog master of a popular piece of music to be copied over and over again without degradation. Also, time degrades analog tape. So, archiving to digital makes sense, so you can’t judge a particular record except by reviews, or by reputation.
