Streaming Is To Audio What Red Plastic Cups Are To Wine

Good digital is better in several ways to vinyl and can hold 80% more information .

with digital no shortcuts ,getit right and it will cost $$ over $10k  minimum 

but that too applies to vinyl. .some people just like the mechanical efforts to play records , that’s fine , for myself judt pick the music on my tablet and done.

digital is always best hardwired, not wifi !!

I give up!

Hav8ng owned a audio store ,vinyl, and digital both have their place 

if you don’t mind the processes  to play records then  fine , good vinyl sounds wonderful, selection is very limited ,  but vinyl  recordings in engineering take 

more time in pressing good recordings , digital  especially older ones have more flaws in the recordings mthats why I look for good remasters when ripping digital,.

So dude bashes streaming for a whole paragraph, then because others comment on it, he writes another with one sentence saying he's not bashing streaming. He still posted the first paragraph, the words are still there. Thats what needs to be addressed. Like I said, newbies are reading these things like, looking for some guidance and the truth is, today's hi res streaming with a quality streamer or DAP has higher fidelity than records. Im very familiar with records as I owned many old ones, many MFSL ones, and newer 180g ones for the records I really liked. I had a high quality turntable, hi fi tonearm and hi fi carts. When I got into streaming, I saw how clean and clear the sound was, and gave my collection and turntable to my son. He loves it.
