David no sane person could contest your arguments about the superiority
of CD over LP in many respects but the truth for some of us is nothing
beats putting on a record. It's almost a certainty that virtually every
'vinylist' has a collection of CDs as well: there are hundreds here in
various places about the house....


I don't dispute that. Most of us, I guess, have collections of both. I was
merely curious as to why Bob calls those of us who don't find that
"nothing beats putting on a record" "puritans". A bit like a classic car
enthusiast calling someone who prefers the reliabilty and convenience of a
modern car a "purist".


I think he is referring to a preference for the 'pure' sound claimed by CD
advocates - ie free of the inherent colouration and and artefacts of LPs.
