analog format because analog copying is marginally lossy. The ultimate analog format is the original master tape, not a copy.The digital files of the original studio master recordings are exact copies of the original and I am fortunate to have many to use for reviews and enjoyment.
OTOH, I do not think this entire issue is significant except to those who have complete disdain for one or another format. Well chosen examples of any format are suitable.
