(500 counting the ones in the loft) CDs that are kicking about and the 1,200
or so albums I have 'digitised' to hard disk?? ;-)

Don't you find that a well digitised LP keeps its vinyl qualities,
especially if you leave in the snap,crackle and pop and the noise
of the lead-in/run-out grooves?

I have an album recorded from LP to cassette in 1975, then digitised,
which sounds much better than the CD I recently bought of it.
Being electronic, the CD sounds rather thin, but the copy from LP has
much more richness, depth and presence. :-)
