    But I agree with you on that -vinyl is lower quality than CD - otherwise they wouldnt have invented the CD (or laserdisc) now would they. People think vinyl sounds better because it produces a slightly distorted 'warm' sound, much like how tube amps sound better than sterile, digital ones.

    In reality the CD actually has the more accurate representation of the source audio. The only other thing I can think of that vinyl might have over CDs is that vinyls are not as compressed as audio CDs these days which tend to suffer from clipping.



    Finally, someone with common sense!
    Thank you.

    I was listening to Prince 12" extended versions and remixes transferred by someone from vinyl to CD (because most of them are unavailable on CD) and you could hear the distortion noise all over it!

    Wasn't he with Oprah in Sydney?


  6. Yes, but it's being shown tommorow (here at least) - I don't remember if anyone in the audience on the day it was recorded reported anything about a new album etc/

    I think the audience were mostly American Oprah fans, so it would have probably been unsuitable to talk about a new album.

Then came University, nobody knew me there, nobody knows I'm gifted, I'm like... normal That's why I love Uni, it represents the kind of integration and normal behaviour that I lacked for almost 15 years...


    Good for you. And I mean that. People should be able to live without being an outsider.
  10. I have made up my mind that I am going to college, but I have yet to decide what to study.


  11. Judging from your style around the boards (which I completely admit is not conclusive by ANY means), it seems like you'd excel greatly in the political sciences. I'm taking a few classes this semester, and I feel like your opinions/want for involvement would get you far.
