Beats me. I still have a collection of LPs I bought in the 1970s and early 80s, and while many of them are pretty good pressings and I don't mind listening to them, some are pretty bad. I have a lot more CDs, and they almost all sound very good to excellent (any defects being in the master, not the medium, of course). What I do get nostalgic for is music without compression. So many recent recordings I find unlistenable, even when I like the music, because they're compressed to within a dB of their lives. This is a much bigger deal to me than digital vs. analog.
