There is no debate that fresh ground/roasted coffee tastes noticeably better than non, and that 128kb MP3s sounds like ass :) Vinyl vs CD is just apples and oranges. I was driving down the road the other day and the DJ played "Going to California" (first time I've listened to the radio in a long time). I enjoyed it so much that I plugged my phone in and searched Grooveshark for the song, finding multiple versions. The DJ played an original master that still had the hiss of the reel audible in the background, which I was grooving on. The first track that came up on Grooveshark was a remaster that had it completely edited out. I had a visceral negative reaction. I had to pull over to scroll around and find the version with the hiss amid all the identically labeled tracks that came up.It sort of reminds me of the #vinyl debate. Does it really sound that much better than MP3 or Compact Discs?
