Seriously, can one of you LP heads tell me what the signal to noise ratio is on a Technics SL-1210? Sorry I need more signal than noise in my music.
LP's are good for one thing, mixing, scratching, etc.
I can understand this if you are a DJ who still spins vinyl, but if you aren't then I don't see the point.

The quality of the MP3 is determined by the bitrate in which it was encoded. Most of my MP3s are ripped@320kbps, which is a much greater quality than 128kbps.

for real, cd's are better in many ways, even in the dj world cd's are making the scene (as i attend many concerts/dj events). cd's can be ripped into many formats, mostly mp3, which 128-160kbps is considered cd quality sound. now there are even better formats u cant get from a LP, like: mp3PRO (double the compression, but same sound quality, eg: 64kbps mp3pro = 128kbps mp3), mp4 (100% digital). the only downfall to cd's is they scratch easy, but thats why we should keep back-ups.
