Analog is more intimate than digital. When I look at the night sky through my binoculars, the photons of distant stars land upon my retina. They touch me, and I touch them, despite the stars being light years away. When I look through a digital camera, I see the stars but I know the photons are fraudulent. The information is there, but it's lost something. With analog, if I could focus better, I'd see more and more detail, until it's inseparable from noise, but it's still in there somewhere With digital, if I zoom, I know I'll find just a pixel or a cold dead square wave.
