And, by the way, a 60 Hz sine wave by definition is not on/off 2-state digital running in the GHz range. (Plus there are those who have systems running on DC batteries if you are of that bent.)
Thanks for the chill out suggestion, but that's not necessary. I'm hardly anti-digital. My system source is entirely digital and I've spent the last 10 years converting my LPs and open reels to my music server. However, I'm not much of a crystal kind of guy.
I personally happen to be in the camp that thinks the storage format is pretty much a non-issue as long is care is taken on the production side.
Interesting how theories get tossed out for discussion, and the minute people respond with comments about the possible limitations and implications, all of a sudden it's "chill-out" time. Reminds me of Orwell's "Animal Farm" where some are more equal that others.... ;-)
Obviously time for me to move on. Hope you guys figure it out.
