Stereophiles switching to digital music

07/20/08

I have a mountain of Cds I never use anymore. I've moved towards, like most stereophile readers in this article, digital music. I can't tell the difference if encoded at a high enough bitrate (You can't either, liar.) and I play them strait from my computer to a stereo receiver through optical. That's when I'm all alone. The 95% of the time kids or somebody else is crawling around my house, I'm forced to use earphones.

I also ran across this bit of romanticism:

I listen primarily to CDs and maybe 20 percent of the time to LPs. I cannot imagine using a music server anytime soon, and sound quality issues have nothing to do with that. I like picking music from my collection. It's a touchy-feely, organic process. One album leads to the next, or I accidentally find something I haven't listened to in years.

This is the same thinking that Madonna uses to justify getting married in a white dress. Just let go, bro.

Sounds like someone has watched High Fidelity one to many times.
