I'm still working to love digital, are you?

I'm wondering how many on this forum are still trying to love the "sound" of digital, as compared to analog. After my 15 long years of digital updates (9 cd players, 3 transports and 5 D/A converters), I still relish the midrange purity and harmonic structure involved with analog, that is not nearly as prevalent in digital. I know that digital gets better every year (I've spent well over $20k myself staying abreast with the latest in digital updates), but digital still doesn't grab my soul the same way that analog does. How many feel the same about analog as I do?

The problem with digital is that they are computer technology and they outdated very fast. The $20k that you spent will be worth US$10000 in less than a year. In a few year, it will become something like the 486 computer. Who want a 486 when you can have PIII! Clearly not a very good investment. And the worst is with all those money spent, you are still not happy!
With the $20k, you can get a world class turntable, the best tonearm and the best mc cartridge and they will never outdated! And the sound will be out of this world.........
I don't think the digital crap will ever have this kind of performance.
