This is Too Funny Vinyl is Still King

Look at this old, old, Video on YouTube. Man, Neil Young and Michael Fremer look young! Even in 1993 the writing was on the wall; analog really was and still is today, superior to digital! Try this link:

I'm not trying to spin the same wheel again, but, I for one am not convinced that any medium is king. There are so many more important things that need to be taken into consideration to make quality recordings, than the medium itself. I'm not even convinced that vinyl is the king of analog, never mind all the other options.

50 years of buying vinyl but agree with unsound. the things i love about records have little to do with opinions of superiority. they are bigger and they're fun. I still dig cd's though, when they exceed my expectations.

@ Unsound: Sure there are a lot of problems with vinyl. Nothing's perfect. Nothing is really very close. But to my ears (old as they are), vinyl LPs better the other reasonably available options for my system. Nothing that I could have in my system that provides the variety of music I enjoy works better than vinyl LPs.
