My preference is uncompressed or lossless compressed digital audio.  I find it
sounds cleaner.  Vinyl is quite good, but I am relatively sensitive to the
imperfections of the medium (relatively high IMD and hiss and rumble, among
other issues).

The audio standard for CDs is rather old nowadays, and the relatively low
sample rate is a possible reason why some don't like CD audio. 

One thing I think many will agree on is that lossy compression does audibly
degrade audio - there's artifacts of lossy compression that really stand out on
certain tracks.


.... I don't have time to wait for instant gratification.
