    LOL....OP Here.  You vinyl guys crack me up.. You derailed my discussion.  :smiley:

    I was simply appreciating the actual music.

    P.S. I was listening to a digital (flac) version


    I’ve never figured out how to get it digitally (non CD).  I have the CD and I haven’t had a CD drive on a computer for at least a decade so I can’t rip it either. It’s on in the car which is literally my only CD player… and it’s the only CD I (still) own 😂
    I ripped all my CDs...700+ a few years ago.  
    Yeah, doing that before CD drives became obsolete would have been smart 
    Buy an external CD/DVD drive. I did that. They are really cheap now.

    As an owner of this, I would never buy a sealed copy for a coupe of easons. 

    First. nearly two decades in shrink wrap is a recipe for disaster for vinyl records unless they were kept in absolutely perfect dry and relatively cool storage.  

    Second, could be missing a disc or have a major pressing flaw.  

    One thing to find either of those out after spending $40.  Another to spend $3,000.

    I enjoy having this on vinyl, but it is absurdly overvalued.  
    His eminence has yet to show.

    Agreed 100%. It's easy for me to sit here and say that as someone who doesn't own one. I'll admit there is a definitive difference between the quality of sound you hear on vinyl versus on a CD or via mp3. I just don't know if that difference is worth spending thousands of dollars on.

    That said, I don't help anyone on here earn their money so I won't tell them how to spend it so I got nothing against the folks who do pay these prices for Bennies.
