Does Anyone Think CD is Better Than Vinyl/Analog?

Regarding Manfred Eicher of ECM fame, here is how it happened:

Once CDs effectively killed off vinyl, Eicher was all-too-ready to terminate LP production, which is exactly what he did. He preferred the sound and convenience of CD to LP, which I recall him stating at the time in interviews. Years later when the production of CDs become a losing financial proposition, Eicher was forced to re-start LP production. But it is a limited affair, designed to deliver trophies to record collectors who refuse to listen to digital in any form. ECM’s core audience (the music lovers) continue to buy the CDs, although the necessity of opening the catalogue to streaming is certainly starting to hurt ECM’s core business.

My analogue experience is only with vinyl.  My digital experience is with CD, SACD, digital downloads of PCM (CD resolution and Hi-rez), and DSD.  If I may be permitted a small boast I have a high-end turntable, cart and phono stage.  Prior to that I would have said that digital is easily better.  One has to go very far up the food chain for vinyl to sound superior.  If you stop and think about it vinyl is a mechanical method, and has to be done very very well to catch up with digital.  But now  at the broadest generalisation I would say they are equal.  They are different but equal. 

I have several instances where I have a digital and a vinyl copy of the same music.  My experience is that sometimes the vinyl is superior and sometimes the digital is superior.  What I have discerned is this:  in the early days of CD it was inferior.  This was typically because they were issuing digital copies of music mastered for vinyl.  Claudio Abbado conducting with the LSO conducting Le Sacre was a striking example.  In the late 80s this was the Le Sacre to beat.  I thought to 'improve' on that with the CD.  Fail.  The CD was crap.  Then just last year the Sydney PYT (pretty young thing) put out a fabulous album  (Don't Let the Kids Win).  I thought to myself 'Andrei, why don't you support the artist and get the LP as well?'  Feeling all noble I did just that.  The LP was crap.  Crappity crappity über-crap.  Forty bucks down the dunny.  The circle was complete and I am convinced the moral is the same.  In each case the original finished product was mastered for a particular medium.  Then the 'suits' get a cunning plan.  A plan so cunning you could pin a tail on it and call it a weasel.  They reissue the same music on a different medium but do no work - read spend no money - on making allowance for the different medium.

This is my long-winded way to say: it is a crap-shoot.

Both those sources are dead its all streamers and internet

We are bless with different format, if I feel I want to listen to vynil I spin my turntable, ithen cd or sacd, not streaming for now because, I have plenty of good record , sacd and xrcds.and K2cds.I try not to compare the analog and digital.
