I really don't think this is an argument. I grew up (up to 8 years of age) listening to cassette tapes ran on custom built decks & lp's on crummy all-purpose turntables. The crummiest digital system sound way better than those analogs and it's much easier & faster to get a good sounding piece via digital than via analog.
I also don't get the "economics" argument to favor the Ipod phenomenon. Bear with me:
- 60 gb ipod: around 350 smackaroos
- portable cd/mp3 player: from 22 bucks up. 60 gb in cd's (wich is nothing more than a 100 cd spindle or less if you use the 700mb ones): again, from 20 bucks up
So, where's the economics between 40 bucks & 350?, I'll buy snob and conformism faster than economics anytime on this subject. And don't give me that new video ipod "is super cool and convenient" argument (the one on 350 was the photo ipod, not the video), I'll never watch a video on such a "big" screen. If you want all this stuff, why not just get a pocket pc with a few 1 gb sd sticks? you have all that the ipod has plus more.
