CaptainStrong posted... adjl posted... CaptainStrong posted... released on CD Why is this a criterion? Because some albums are released on vinyl with more dynamic range than the CD version (like Stadium Arcadium or Random Access Memories). Vinyl is too much of a bitch for me to deal with and the sound quality is worse than CD. You know you can get music in forms other than CD's and vinyl now, right? Of course I fucking know. I just don't like downloading or streaming music. I like buying CDs and ripping them myself. <cite>CaptainStrong posted [p:902943130] in What are y...
