It's funny how on sites like HN, much of the herd will emote over how superior vacuum tube amps and vinyl records are "better" than current technology, despite the fact that science and math proves them wrong. It just goes to show that there will always be a subset of people in all fields, regardless of the level of technology or sophistication, that think they know better than science and math. It's as absurd as a surgeon who is a deep believer in astrology and who goes to visit psychics for life advice.
I actually lived through the vinyl era as well as ferric oxide and CrO2 cassettes, etc, and the advance from that to CDs you just can't even compare. If you say you prefer the sound of vinyl records with its pops and fading dynamic range, then that's your choice, but it's in no way superior to digital audio.
