Are you an iTunes Music Store addict?
Authored by: frgough on May 10, '06 08:48:09AM

I always get a kick out of people who scream and yell about AAC compression out of one side of their mouths, while out of the other they explain away the hiss of tape and pop of vinyl as they preach its audio superiority.

It's nothing more than the human desire to feel superior by embracing the fringe.

You misunderstand my point completely. I'm not suggesting that people should listen to vinyl. I haven't listened to vinyl for years. I'm saying in this day and age we should get the best of all worlds:
The quality or vinyl (or better)
None of the pops etc
The convenience of digital

Instead we get the less than the quality of CD which in turn is less than the quality of vinyl *sound*. If people are happy with this fair enough, but you are stuck with that forever.
