already answered this but also think CD's sound better which is why I buy the CD if the group or music is important to me---are there any geeks out there who think that CD sound is better than digital? Less truncated maybe?

Mostly cd. I can't stand the idea of listening to an "album" without having access to the physical product.

Digital mostly. I'd like to collect and listen to more vinyl, but I have no room, and digital is more convenient, portable, and easier to use headphones with.

Digitally, but only because it tends to be the most convenient.
Vinyl often when I am at home and able to just sit and listen.

Mostly CDs due to my age, but I still have some of my vinyl around that I listen to, and I have some digital versions as well. No option for cassette or 8-track?

Cd's. Why be a tight ass when listening to quality music? It's so much better having the album cover, song list and something to read about the band. Not to mention good sound quality and no interferences
|
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

I am a child of the 70's, but I listen to most of my music digitally. Financial considerations probably have a lot to do with it - I have a family to try to support. If I could afford to buy music in any format, I would definitely buy more CD's, if for no other reason than to better support bands that I love. However, I don't have a middle-aged person's nostalgic attachment to older formats.

Mostly digital these days but I always buy vinyl and I love it. I got tired of buying and listening to CDs. The digital format is way better IMO

Me too I do prefer vinyl though, but I'd have to be somewhat sober in order to operate my turntable. If the state of drunkenness has reached karate-jello movements and strange dancing, then I prefer digital. Then it's only my computer/Ipod that gets trashed.

I'm not sure how to vote here. At my house, CD's most of the time. In my car, IPod most of the time... or wherever else I might travel that I might want to listen to some music on my own, IPod too. Whenever I might want to listen to some selection of songs instead of complete albums in my house, I might end up choosing the IPod or coomputer too.
