RE: So When is a Direct to Disk Recording NOT a Direct to Disk Recording?

Here we go again. All this is really besides the point. People can wonder all they want if it's truly direct to disc as it's narrowly defined. Is this what we really want to talk about? I couldn't care if the lacquer was made of horseshit (except for the smell)! If the recording sounds as fantastic as it does, WHY DOES IT MATTER?

John E, even though he hasn't frequented this site in a while, never loses an opportunity to tell us how great his results have been recording to digital. That's fine but how many times do we have to hear it? I think what he misses is that many here love vinyl, not necessarily for the sound alone but all the things that go with it: the real pleasure of seeing old technology work so amazingly well, the physical act of placing a record on the turntable, the joy of large, often beautiful record covers with words you can actually see, going to record stores to hunt out new records. In short, having something palpable, something you can hold in your hand!
