Why has no one mentioned the sound quality in this debat (or have they and I've missed it). For me, the most important thing about music is not the ideas behind it, not who's written it or from where, not what format it's on or how easy it is to mix. The most important thing, for me anyway, is the sound of it.
For this reason I buy music on vinyl and play it with the best bits Hi-Fi I can afford. I'm no DJ and I don't dream of becoming one, but I still buy and vinyl. Vinyl sounds better than CD and CD sounds better than MP3. While the popular media say Mp3's sound as good as CD's, I don't think anyone believes them do they? I mean, just play a CD next to a high quality MP3 on quality Hi-Fi. They tow don't even come close. Why is it the poor sound quality of MP3's never gets mentioned in these debates. Do artists not care that people won't be able to hear their music as clearly as intended.
