These days, I have a shit-ton of Audio CDs and DVDs (and now Blu-Ray). I guard those religiously.. And I maintain players for each form of content. I even have one of the original Sony "Discman®" mini players. And, believe it or not, I still have an old Sony "Betamax®" VCR as well as VHS players.

I only buy music on CD's. The sound is not quite as "pure" as vinyl, but they do not degrade like vinyl does when you play them. Most new music is probably recorded digitally, but I haven't bought anything recorded in the last 30 years. I've ripped all of my music to MP3 to play in the car and share with the family. My CD's are in a locked cabinet and only I touch them. I have an old higher end CD player, and I believe the sound quality is better than MP3's. There is compression etc involved in ripping MP3's. Only I touch my CD's.

Vinyl has become "cool", but I have to laugh at the new USB turntables. Most of the music I like was recorded in analog, and vinyl purists are looking for the warmer analog sound. Immediately running the sound into an A-D conversion is just not pure. Some albums from the 80's were recorded, mastered, or remastered digitally, and putting them on vinyl seems stupid.

I'm not that much of an audiophile and accept the sound of CD's. MP3's are OK for the car and providing background sound in the house. When I really want to listen to music, I go to my CD's.

That aint good.

 

[lash]

That aint good.

No, it is not. Broken hammer hinge pin. But it’s on a cheap old Spanish no name copy I inherited. I never fired it because the action wasn’t right. Glad I didn’t. This revolver looks like it was made in a dirt floor shop in Spain back when cheap copies were flooding the country.

Look closely at the horrific machining. Fine crapsmanship right there.

 

[Lange Carabine]

That aint good.

Fixable, but the lack of a S&W roll stamp on the frame indicates it's most likely a cheap Spanish knockoff that surely has other issues so it isn't worth the effort.
E.T.A.... @lash beat me to the draw by that much..

Neither do I buy on vinyl, unless it's a legacy piece (curio/relic) that I cannot get otherwise. A recent example of that would be the original Herbert Von Karajan's full cover of Ricard Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathustra." It's the full 40 minute ver. (London Records), the opening of which was the one actually featured in the Kubrick 2001 movie. Not available on CD to my knowledge.

I don't have the locked cabinets for CDs, but I get it. I do some ripping but only to have it on my desktop to listen. Still, I keep the CD as backup. It helps a little as it cuts down on wear & tear on the CDs themselves, especially for things that are no longer replaceable.

A good example of that would be Michael Jackson's "BAD" album. That was a full DDD Digital recording. And it sounded kinda weird (too "electronic") when compared to the BAD video. Funny, now they have YouTube videos where the "reactors" are reacting to "mashup" versions of Bad vs. Weird Al Yankovic's "FAT."

I haven't listened to my Vinyl in a long time. I'm just saying, I have the turntable if I ever wanted to.

I'd take the knock off over the original in this case.

Well, as long as they can't affect your DD214 or VA status (in re: Health/Medical Stuff), Fair enough.

I asked that very question before retirement . . . but I did not tell him why.

If I had to guess, that is probably the reason he was the only one that acknowledged (telephone call) receipt of the letter.

AFAIK, most if not all modern vinyl is made this way with maybe a few exceptions.

It would be fun to play an original pure analog and it's digitally remastered counterpart through a high end turntable in a blind sampling for a bunch of audiophiles.

A guy I knew a long time ago used to paint the edges of all his CDs with a green marker because it made them sound better.

Some of the older bands who have money record on tape and vinyl.

I know one of kiss last records was recorded on old school tape because they thought it sounded better etc

They said it’s harder and much more expensive…but when your a mega band it doesn’t matter.

Articulates different in modern Brit. English, sounds more like, "I bend to the will of Allah," or something.

Exact same here. I've spent my entire career as a media technology exec, I don't trust streaming one bit. I buy everything I like and file it in the basement as backups (~1600 video titles ripped to high-quality MP4 and available across the house on a Plex server, and ~800 CDs ripped to 320k MP3 for the car/phone/etc.) FWIW, I think 320kbps MP3 is pretty damned close to CD, good enough that I haven't listened to a CD in a decade or more...

Obligatory but otherwise extraneous pic of basement:

The best is direct to disc. The bad part is if anyone makes any kind of mistake it’s there to stay. I have a couple, recorded direct to disc,at an old church renovated into a recording studio. The acoustics are astounding.

True story

Tiny terrier sacrifices its life to save five children from pitbulls

A plucky foot-high Jack Russell terrier named George saved five children from two marauding pitbulls, but was so severely mauled in the fight he had to be destroyed, according to his devastated owner

[armorpl8chikn]

would really recommend that the UK's true outlier patriots with the same rugged mentality as us to try to move over here and become Americans

How about...FUCKING NO. THEY ARE NOT US.
They are fucked up in too many ways to just say "come on in" cause they like owning guns.

No. Just no.
Fuck that shit. I'd rather have real sheet rocking Messicans.
