How do you respond to this question?

...and you don't need a magnifying glass to see whats on the cover.

My parrot does not sing when CD or music server is playing, but he sings when record is playing tho. Obviously I don't give a slight fluke about parrot or cow listening to the records or CDs, I just care about the music I want to listen and I'm kinda selfish on that department.

The high frequencies of CDs suck. You don't have to be a cat or dog to hear it, either. Of course being deaf probably helps a lot. :-)

Odd, I listen to classical music only, and have not observed any "falling apart" with my digital rig... Low entropy coefficient in Austin may be?! G.

For me it's a simple answer, a lot of the esoteric jazz I listen to never came out on CD, or if it did, sounded terrible. I've been collecting jazz vinyl for 35 years, now it's cool and on trend to do so. It really wasn't back then.
