      CDs. I absolutely refuse to buy into this "vinyl is better" hogwash and streaming services never have the selection or audio quality I want.

      There is an esoteric quality to vinyl that can't be reproduced on CD. And CDs replaced vinyl so... vinyl is an older technology. I have both.

      I like to say that vinyl most definitely does *not* produce more *accurate* sound reproduction compared to CD, but it *does* sound *different* in a way that many people find more pleasurable.

          Surface noise. The delicious cracks and popples of the needle on rough vinyl is a splendid sound. Also the full play of an entire album is how most records were designed to be played. Sometimes the "small" songs are important counterpoints to the big popular ones.

          CDs give me the ability to play an entire album OR skip immediately to favorites.

          For the record, this article does a good job of breaking down the vinyl vs CDs vs digital format debate....and, of course, reinforces my preferences....so I'm sharing it.https://now.tufts.edu/articles/does-music-sound-better-vinyl-records-cds …

          That's because any CD of a vinyl-era recording will have been remastered and mastering philosophy has substantially changed (many would say for the worse) in the intervening time. Big part of the problem is that whereas with vinyl where louder passages took up more physical 1/
