Ditto.

I'm an LP guy but only because of sunk costs. At one point about 25 years ago, I was flat ass broke and had to sell all of my CDs in order to put food on the table. When I was in a position to start buying music again, I got a good turntable for free and was able to buy an armload of used LPs for the price of one new CD.
By the time I was in a position to put together a new system, I had about 2000 LPs and maybe 2 dozen CDs. What's a guy supposed to do at that point?
Oh, one other problem I have with digital is the players. I never seem to be able to get more than a few years out of one before it starts malfunctioning.
You can take a turntable out of an attic where it's been sitting for decades, clean it up, put a new cartridge on it and it'll work perfectly and reliably for as long as you want to use it, but I've had CD players go belly up in as short as six months.



The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
