herein lies the "problem." Vinyl is fun and has a more authentic appeal to it and if I have friends over they always want to play with my very limited collection. After a certain amount of time though people quickly get bored with the process of having to switch out records for each individual song and we invariably return to digital after a few tracks. I think vinyl is fun to collect but we have to be honest with ourselves about how many albums there are in existence that we actually like every single track on... I think there are maybe just 5 albums or so over the course of history that I can enjoy from start to finish.
I gave away all of my CD's to Goodwill several years ago. I didn't feel as though I was losing anything of value either. Vinyl on the other hand, has a more permanent and nostalgic appeal to it that CD's were never going to be able to replicate, regardless of how much information they put into the sleeve in the jewel case.
Vinyl was all we had once, it wasn't a question of choice as tape was the alternative.. worse! CD's are worse as you say, physical again and but without the nostalgia. I am happy with digital as long as it's DRM free.
The only time I have had issues with digital music was with the one and only Apple product I ever owned. I didn't realize it at the time but it was nigh on impossible to move any of the music that you paid for off of that device. That was all the reason I ever needed to never dabble with Apple ever again.
