The imitation butter that people grew up on becomes more the real than the real. Perhaps some people will prefer analog vinyl disks to CD's because the CD's don't have the "normal" .5 Hz "ticks" caused by a scratch, or sound strange w/o a solid noise floor to stand on. So, when I listen to a CD version of a piece I know oh so well, and it sounds "wrong", could it be that THIS is right, and I've only become comfortable with my margarine?
