Try this:

You never miss a chance to emphasise how bad you think vinyl is.

No - I emphasise the fact that it can't compare to CD in like for like
terms. Ie, the very finest vinyl will not be as good as the very finest
CD.


Absolute rubbish.


That some CDs are poorly made in whatever way is neither here nor there.
As, of course, were many vinyl records.


Agreed.


And seem to want the world to join you.

I personally couldn't care less and simply respond to the extravagant
claims made on here for vinyl - including by some who should know
better. ;-)


And I only respond when I see 'denial' of the following:

That many believe LP can sound a lot better than CD.

That many people play and enjoy LPs.

That LPs and 45s are still being manufactured.

That there are continuing/increasing 'high volume' sales of turntables and
other associated products - carts &c....

(See even the Oz newspaper article....)

That no vinylist I know has any strong view about others not liking it.

....by some who should know better... ;-)

Now, if these Denial Boyz just said 'I think vinyl sounds ****e' I'd say
'fine' and move on.

If the Denial Boyz said nothing at all, I would probably do the same...
