For Me: The problem
w some downloads vs CD, Vinyl, or Tape is the Dynamic Range loss of sound. Often the Highs and Lows are chopped off and compressed rendering the songs no longer Hi Fidelity sonically on any quality sound system.
Sounds ok though on iPad, cheap sound system, etc. Some of Pandora Channels can sound pretty good streaming on surround sound Hi-Fi too.
The takeaway: Some classic songs sound completely different analog vs digital vs streaming...
