Comment I have been wondering this about television (Score 1) 743
Considering I grew up with vinyl records and cassette tapes, I absolutely prefer the sound of records over CD/MP3 and it seems the kids of today prefer digital. My pops and tape hiss are their sizzle and "magic castle sound" (that's the name I give to the chimey artifacts you hear on overly-compressed audio, mainly spoken word).
I've been wondering lately if kids are going to look back fondly at compressed video, macroblocking, banding, etc the way I do when I think back at the scanlines, snow, and 60Hz buzz of tubes sets with analog signals.
