I fully agree with the argument that digital can sound better than vinyl when properly mastered, but nothing you say here is correct. You’re not scraping metal

I fully agree with the argument that digital can sound better than vinyl when properly mastered, but nothing you say here is correct. You’re not scraping metal across the surface unless you’re using a phonograph with steel needles to play 78’s, which are not “vinyl”, and you hit the arm such that it goes perpendicular to the grooves, which is not a good idea, because it will make an unpleasant sound and badly damage the surface. Digital material is still often mastered poorly. Some older material is still not properly mastered, despite multiple “remastering” releases.
