Not quite the same. There is a richness that you get from an LP that you don't get from a digitized recording. Who knows, maybe it is the compression algorithm. Lower sample rate songs are noticeable. I am especially sensitive to it for some reason.

Unfortunately, that is the digital world we live in.

Digital cameras are analogous.

I have heard that same comment from several people. Perhaps it depends on how acute your ears are.

I agree with that if you have a good sound system. mp3 definitely throws acoustic information away.

True, but it does have some advantages. Portability is one. Also it's hard to scratch a digital file.
