For high fidelity sound quality, vinyl has always been superior to CD. You'll find very few who would argue differently. And while CDs were once superior to digital music, which early on was compressed and thin-sounding, streaming digital fidelity has vastly improved over the years, as have audio systems adapted to play streaming music.
I'm streaming Pandora in my garage as I type this, over a simple LG bookshelf stereo and it sounds great! Clear stereo sound with solid bass response.
The fact that you praise pandora proves you have no appreciation for good sound.
BASIC pandora is only good for background listening.
I STREAM pandora at 360 but not for true listening.

LOL! The first design criteria for CDs was to EXCEED the quality of LPs.

er, CDs are digital music. But it is true that streaming players have improved to a point crappy music is ALMOST acceptable for background listening.
