No one is allowed to have an opinion on vinyl vs. digital unless they have at least a basic understanding of the Shannon sampling theorem. Seriously, if you don't know what the Nyquist rate is, shut the hell up.

Note: There are still valid arguments to be had in this domain. They just don't include the phrase 'warmth of analog' at any point.

Past *that*, well, and I say this as (apparently) an analog electrical engineer, *all* signals are digital, because electrons are chunky. The difference between 'analog' and 'digital' is merely how small a chunk we're talking about.

Past that, it's all analogue because there's no way to get the music digitally from source/artistic-intent to your brain, etc., etc.
