no it really is completely hipster
a lot of digital formats are going to be of significantly higher quality, so it's pointless
that'd be like seeing two things: a regular car's radio and an XM radio receiver
and picking the regular radio

Vinyl usually has a higher audio quality than .MP3. I doesn't have stuff on FLACC though.

yeah that's what I meant
there are plenty of lossless formats
MP3 is entirely horrible, compared to any of them
FLAC is great though
it's free, and also rather amazing for a free thing

Foo Fighters press Vinyl?

The Pretender, Greatest Hits, and Wasting Light Deluxe are all on vinyl.

no it's not
you could also have said "a digital camera is better than a film camera" instead of that, and it wouldn't be true
because that's not what I said
