Purchasing physical media is an intentional step of curation. It forces you into a subset that makes the choice of what to listen to so much easier than having to decide from all musicdom. Great vid.

the biggest sound difrence i heard has comparing the original vs remastered versions.....jesus i was blown away.

0:12 "Physical media is making a comeback!" Sony: "Lmao hold my beer"

CDs cost less, take up less room, and have none of the issues that plague records (dust, static, degradation from stylus). CD is also the most pure sound.

Another great plus for CD format is the fact that you can have both a physical collection, but also rip the files off of the CD to host your own digital library that you OWN! Obviously as long as you...

Probably the best transition into an ad I've seen. Normally I skip the ads, but since it was so smooth I let it roll!

Good for James for striking out on his own but really missing the more frequent car content.

Thank you. I tossed my original CDs into trash bin 20years ago because "MP3 rules" and now I am trying to get all the hardware back. and this video was just perfectly timed....

I love vinyl for celebration of music, cd for their prices and ease of use in car, cassette for stupid nostalgia, and streaming for actual quality and convenience. At the end quality of them all can....

the way you guys cover ALL my niche interests… editing was crispy too. also your duo dynamic >> explainer gold. 10/10 no notes

This is just the best video idea ever. I actually don't remember any video that I got hyped like seeing this thumbnail. Thank you James

I am a rabid music fan and while I moved away from physical media long ago, I’ve continued to support the artists I love by buying albums either via iTunes or Bandcamp.

I have never remembered the moment in time that I streamed a new song, but I still remember going to the music store and buying music. I remember who I was with, what the store smelled like, the girl...

I literally just got my old iPod and CDs out this week, and it's pretty good so far. It will be great once I get everything in order and load all of my music onto the iPod, but it will take some time.

Supporting artists is very cool. Just like supporting you guys. You make good stuff.

this video is such a perfect representation of why we do sound engineering and don't talk to audiophiles. marketing and sales will handle that lol.

I switched to local radio for short trips. 10/10. Helps me find local bands but with the thought and choice outsourced to a human not an algo.

My local rehearsal studio has started a vinyl club and it’s been a wonderful experience. Sometimes we listen to a variety of artists in a genre, sometimes we listen through one album. Either way, we’...

I enjoy records because it forces me to slow down, sit in my living room, and notice the little beautiful things, like the sun creeping through my window and casting a long shadow on my peace lilies.

Just by how it is made, already a 10/10 video

Excellent video Very informative, easy to understand, and kept me engaged from start to finish

Here's the thing, coming from having Tidal, SACDs, CDs and of course a turntable. Advantage of CDs, SACDs and records is you can rip them and you own them, of course vs streaming. Advantage of stream...

I only remember the channel that will not be mentioned and seeing you there and then it didn’t exist and it’s so good to see you here and I loved the ending and the message about why you have this ch...

Now do solid state vs vacuum tube. That's where the real fun begins!

really beautiful video and honestly this is the first time i can say a sponsor added to the video too, i really loved the integration and how it kinda fit in with both subjects being about taste and....

Bro, that was one of the best ads in a YT video I’ve ever seen. I was amused by it and enjoyed it. I pay YouTube premium just to avoid ads. It was a perfect segue too! I don’t really care about coffe...

I clicked this video intending to skip around for a bit, and ultimately skip to the end to see the verdict. But you captured me the whole time! Subscribed. Thanks

The music we listen to also influences our choice of format. One of my favorite musicians is John Zorn. His label, the prolific Tzadik, has a catalog of nearly 900 titles, all released on CD, with on...

Part of the reason vinyl sounds “warmer” is due to the music being mastered to compensate for vinyl’s limitations. Vinyl has a frequency response of 40Hz to 16Khz, all bass below 150Hz is limited to....

Thank you so much for addressing the Bluetooth issue (and pointing out the fact that YT hacks the crap out of audio, though differences were still slightly notable in your video). That is one of my p...
