> Large album covers printed with intricate detail, just distribute CDs in vinyl-size containers >the manual effort you give to cue in the vinyl and changing sides this only happens if you also go with old school vinyl players and not the automated ones. also, lifting an arm to compensate for the lack of technology is not what I'd consider a meaningful experience >Adding coffee, tea, a book or a couple of friends into the music itself a vinyl is not a live concert, there is nothing in the tech that intrinsically lends itself more to those situations. I can have friends listen to a CD, I can drink a coffee or read a book listening a CD. >It's as pointless as saying, eyes can see 60FPS at most anyway, so higher frame rates are useless. We know how many frequencies our ears can perceive, and the Sampling Theorem doesn't lie >Reducing music, listening and being an audiophile to numbers and formulae is great disservice to all. vinyls only exist because of maths and physics, analog stuff is not voodoo magic. listening to a CD while forgetting the technical specifications is exactly the same as listening to the vinyl. as long as I know the CD is a >44.1KHz and was recorded and mixed properly by competent audio engineers I don't see how it could be any more "reductionist" than making sure your vinyls also were well recorded
