You can rip discs onto your computer and the files are always there. Vinyl can be ripped too if you have a record player with a USB output, but the ripped files (even 24-bit ones) do tend to sound less clean and crisp than (16-bit) CD rips in my experience. And not only are they yours to play in a CD player, hi-fi system or in your car (because you can’t play vinyl in your car unless it’s a 1956 Chrysler with a ‘Highway Hi-Fi add-on (opens in new tab)), they can also be easily ripped and stored as digital files – files that, again, you own. And we think, for good reason.įirstly, CDs are yours, which gives them a nod over music streaming, if not vinyl or downloads. We can say that CDs are now part of an upward trend, and fashion, for physical music ownership.
