I think that most people will agree that there are only subtle differences between MD digital and CD sounds. It would take a very good ear to discern the two. For me, I prefer the CD. How about you?
Re: What is better quality - MD or CD/DAT?
I guess I've been spoiled into thinking that digital is better. I really like the fact that I can download practically anything I want and play it immediately.
Well, I have to disagree with you there. I prefer the CD sound quality to MD, however, that being said, I really like the way the old vinyl sounds.
At times, I feel that the discussion regarding quality is normally overrated and that you can get good audio quality in practically any format. I am not a huge fan of CDs since I like content that's easy to download.
