Vinyls generally have inferior sound quality to digital music if they both have the same original source.

I think Kworb said it best, it has the distortion sound (at times) that just makes it sound richer to me. And it's actually lossless.
I've noticed that Adele's voice comes through even better on vinyl compared to iTunes, etc. 25 sounds like a bunch of demo recordings on iTunes compared to the vinyl version imo.

The first answer here explains it very well

In terms of fidelity and accuracy of sonic reproduction, CDs outperform vinyl in significant ways. With that said, there are sonic artifacts and emotional attachments with vinyl that many people find pleasing. This yields a preference for vinyl - which some would describe as better, but this is a subjective quality as measured by the ear of the beholder.

...vinyl cannot represent the same degree of dynamic range that a CD can, and is less effective at accurately reproducing sound. However, as mentioned previously, some listeners enjoy this effect.

One of the main reasons people prefer vinyl records is that their playback mechanism (needle on a Turntable) introduces mild harmonic distortion into the signal. This harmonic distortion actually sounds pleasing to the human ear, and is commonly subjectively described as warmth in the sound.

I wanna buy a vinyl player now to hear that distortion. If only they didn't cost like $100.

They're taking too long setting it all up (even though what they're setting up is arguably one of the coolest things in comic book lore).
But I think the second half is gonna be a lot better.

The first two seasons of The Killing were the actual worst  So many plot contrivances and needless red herrings in order to fill up a season order.
And seasons three and four were AMAZING wtf.

All her shows are the same. Grey's was good for awhile. Scandal and HTGAWM are essentially the same. I couldn't believe Viola Davis nabbed the Emmy over Tatiana Maslany

Lmao, at the premise of American Crime Story's second season already proving that Ryan's shows always have a steep decline.
And the show hasn't even ****ing premiered yet.

If we're going to play that game, neither of them should have won.

I love her song for the Peanuts movie.
She's good for some good songs, but I think that's about it.

Sense8 is a very polar show. I enjoyed a lot for what it was you just have to be patient because it doesn't pick up until the 4th - 5th episode

Yes, it was so good!
When is the second season of S8 coming? Didn't it start like a year ago?
