Vinyl vs cd loudness war.

Heres a snippet of what is probably the biggest difference between cd and vinyl i ve heard so far to the point where i wanted to post it here. For digital to truly eclipse vinyl thousands of records from the 1990s onward would need a remaster. There have been other deletions in the past mostly by people who think that vinyl mp3 or self improved versions of albums should not be there. That i believe is one of the reasons why vinyl has been able to reach 18 of all album sales in the us.

Vinyl s resurgence vinyl s resurgence seemed to be hastening the death of the cd. While cd album sales dropped 80 percent after a 2001 peak lp sales hit 9 2 million in the u s up nearly 800. In a way the loudness war on cds probably also contributes to this. A look at why many choose vinyl over cd.

For vinyl albums you re trying to add back the technical elements that were lost when the first record was pressed. Attempts to achieve extreme loudness could render the medium unplayable. The resurgence of vinyl as a format and it s part to play in the fight against the loudness war. Damn audio loudness these days ruining music.

Yeah and it seems allot of people who do want to keep a music library are going to vinyl. Das war nur ein moment ein hauch von frühling.
