Radiohead: In Rainbows -- Vinyl or CD?


Now that both formats are for sale, I am wondering which to buy. Anyone listened to the vinyl yet and compared it to the CD (not the compressed downloads that have been available)? Thanks for any insights.

Agree with Lush. The CD version has too much compression and thus loud. Way too loud. Am awaiting my Vinyl copy.
I just got my 'In the Rainows' Vinyl today and the Vinyl is Okay. In fact compared to CD, Vinyl is like 4.5 stars for sound quality-Not loud at all. Great album BTW-4.5 stars.
Slight correction. The CD version is not all that bad. Only track 2 comes across as loud and compressed.

I did not realize that I had hooked up my whole system again after more than month disconnected and stored in Garage while remodeling my house. Just about now it sounds 're-broken' in... and then interior furniture and damping and stuff is not back on completely.
