Poll: evolving audio//video formats vs. your music/movie collection

[JoeM]

I have a large LP and 45 collection as well as a good amount of CDs, some of which duplicate the records, for the usual reasons.

I still have a nice turntable and still listen to vinyl, as sonically, some CDs are inferior to the original LPs or can't reproduce the obvious "mood" you get off of the original vinyl.

Speaking for myself, I've never seen a reason to discard old technology simply because something new or "better" comes along. If there's a practical reason, like space considerations, OK, I can see it.

Hence, I have a Teac 3340S sitting next to my ProTools, which sits next to a Tascam MS16. There's also an iPod next to the turntable, CD and DVD players, DAT, PCM F1 and cassette machines.

It's all good at my casa. (except for 8 track)
