Analog and it's fate

[MetalMilitia]

I think it's worth drawing a distinction between different digital formats. MP3 is a compressed format designed for portability rather than quality. The way it works is, among other things, to cut off the high and low end of the spectrum which is why some people notice it lacking the range of analogue media. Other digital formats are loss-less which should mean they retain the full range of sounds present in the original (or at least those perceivable to the human ear).

Of course if you're talking about the source of the music - the recording equipment - then I have nothing constructive to add.
