Is Direct Drive Really Better?

I've been reading and hearing more and more about the superiority of direct drive because it drives the platter rather than dragging it along by belt. It actually makes some sense if you think about cars. Belt drives rely on momentum from a heavy platter to cruise through tight spots. Direct drive actually powers the platter. Opinions?

Oh, I've been saving their sweat in jars in anticipation of a future windfall. Such is the soundness of most all of my investment strategies...

Naw, I really could not care less which technology is used - only about what my ears ultimately hear.

You are on VA, too. Another person who uses a separate name? That's damn confusing, I say. :-) My name over there is 4yanx. You can call me 4yanx. :-)
