Listening to full LPs vs virtually endless digital tracks.


Not to open up that analog or digital can of worms, a big difference is the enjoyment of listening to artist’s talent of creating a cohesive full album vs drilling down on seemingly endless tracks. IME I have mostly listened to full CDs one at time. I have only experienced a little bit of Pandora through my smart TV. Sure it is fun to start with a familiar artist and open up a plethora of related and new material. Pandora’s box? Vinyl vs that kind of Digital is clearly a very different way of listening.

I listen to Classical and so usually it’s the whole album.  I have no desire to hear, say for example,  the second movement of Schubert Unfinished followed by the finale of Mozart Rondo Alla Turk  Piano Sonata, even though there are Classical Radio and Pandora like stations that do that sort of thing.  One of things that I don’t like about streaming is that when I import a CD the tracks are frequently out of order, a real annoyance in Classical.  So whether it is a whole album as an lp, CD, or streamed would then revert to the other vinyl v. digital issues.
  When I do listen to pop, it’s usually just one or two songs by the same Artist.  Here streaming is a real advantage, as what a pain it would be to change a physical media 5 minutes or so
did anyone invent a record player that plays one lp side then the other on the fly????
