    My absolute favorite is obviously live. Then it s a two way tie for second: vinyl or cd.

    I sincerely appreciate the poll but maybe one should be done without the "live" option. I mean, who wouldn't rather be AT a Pearl Jam show as opposed to listening to one?

    Live would definitely be my choice for PJ music but not the "albums".

    MP3
    I would of chosen live, if I had the opportunity to see them play live more often.
    MP3, is the most convenient way, when you are out and about.

    I picked something other than live because I didn't want it to be 100% to 0% for all other choices.

    If this is the meaning then I prefer listening to live PJ in mp3 format.

    Vinyl
    Live is obviously number one for all fans, but for listening to the albums as a whole, Vinyl is the preference. Time constraints often mean I'm listening via MP3, as that is by far the most convenient. BUT, when I have the time to sit and chill, Vinyl wins everytime

    I didn't even realize that live was an option, because I don't consider seeing a band live a format. Obviously I would rather attend a concert than spin a record, but going to a show shouldn't have been in the list of options - it's a whole different ball game.

    I did the same(not realizing live was a option) and don't consider seeing a band a format also.

    I know that "Live" is not a format. I just put it out there in order to avoid the contrary comments: I prefer seeing them live any day of the year. It's just a funny poll after all. Please pay attention to the question (albums) and don't take it that seriously.

    Looks like putting 'Live' as an option caused the effect you were trying to avoid. ;)

    I picked CD......but.....I prefer seeing them live any day of the year. Actually I would pick FLAC/FLAC HD if that were an option. Portable and sounds great!

    Vinyl. Easy choice. Nothing compares to the vinyl format for me.

    Live shouldn't be an option. Pretty sure anybody would choose seeing them live to sitting at home and listening to an album.

    Obviously live. But, if I'm listening to a recording, I prefer digital files that are easily transferred between devices.
