If you have lossless digital files and a good playback system then you’ve got more convenient storage AND better sound quality. No need to hang on to CDs. The argument was different in the earlier days of digital but it’s come a long way.

How do you figure when CDs are limited to 16bit/44.1kHz and most streaming services offer 24bit/320kbps?

How does it lack the physical capability? It’s analog (physical) vs. digital. Digital mimics analog and is dependent on its ability to convert and write data as a close approximation of the analog (vinyl). A CD is limited to 16bit 44.1kHz which is lower than most streaming services that offer 24bit playback. A vinyl record is not limited by bit or sample rate at all. That’s not to say that modern digital conversion is poor but even taking a high quality digital recording of a vinyl record and burning it to a standard CD inherently decreases quality because of the 16/44.1 limitation. You’re making it pretty obvious that you don’t know what you’re talking about below a surface level.

Nobody that’s serious about vinyl as a high quality playback medium prefers hum, crackle, or compression. How was CD sound quality “off the charts better”? Especially when they first came out and digital recording was relatively new?

You've never experienced a variation of one tab from one source and one tab from another? From the same batch that makes sense. Because its a liquid thats been mixed. And thats why many of us prefer to grind up our shrooms into a mixed powder and put it in capsules. At that point every capsule from the same batch is of equal potency the same as a tab from the same bottle of acid.

Thats how I do it. Rub a bar of wax on the fabric then melt it in with a hair dryer.

That’s great for you. I don’t know how it applies to the conversation at hand though.
