Why vinyl

Nostalgia rules!  Guilty as charged. 

Clicks. Pops. Surface noise. Buzz and hum.   Warping.  Bad presses. Wear and tear.  Rumble, wow flutter…..
 

See why?

You can hold it in your hands though.   Something to say for that.  Plus sometimes the whole package is done quite nicely.  
 

So there are still some fans out there.  Just like for TV westerns.  The good old days right? Of course law and order now rules so……right?

Digital is like artificial intelligence, that one day might become better than humans in all measurable ways, but who cares ? It will remain artificial, just an advanced computer or cybernetic organism perhaps.

That's why records and tape, with all their imperfections.

Vinyl has always sounded better to me. There is a clarity to it I can’t describe. High-end analog is just something special. 
 

Digital has gotten better, but still not as good. Better technically, just not in practice. 

Good point.  We humans like records and all the imperfections because it makes us feel better about ourselves perhaps?
