"PS- I agree with you. I am nerd. And, yes, I DO think vinyl sounds better than CDs. I also think I can prove it if you come over some time. I also think Bach sounds better in Werkmeister 3 than 12-tone equal temperament and that this, too, is empirically demonstrable, although it is another subject..."
I agree. And I think the situation is even more grave than this. Many are willing to sacrifice their CD quality sound for the convenience of MP3s! That is a shift in quality less subtle and yet a leap that the general populace seems to make rather easily.
So again, we have another case of beauty/artistic intent jettisoned for the sake of convenience.
