When is digital going to get the soul of music?

I have to ask this(actually, I thought I mentioned this in another thread.). It's been at least 25 years of digital. The equivalent in vinyl is 1975. I am currently listening to a pre-1975 album. It conveys the soul of music. Although digital may be more detailed, and even gives more detail than analog does(in a way), when will it convey the soul of music. This has escaped digital, as far as I can tell.

Excellent response Kijanki !

A more film-like video is almost like a more tube-like audio presentation.

I ask myself which is more "real" ?

Depends on preferences of course, for video I like Pioneer Kuro Plasma, for digital audio it's CEC and Museatex, more "soul-like" to me.

"unfortunately our neurophysiology in its richness and complexity transcends the trite definitions of 'analog' and 'digital'."
Of course it does Guido.... we were just making fun for heavens's sake ((:

Ah thank you Detlof. . . I think I need to get my humor detector looked after. . . I've been laid off last Thursday and I'm taking things far too seriously. . . do you think that taking a micro Brilliant Pebble a day for 30 days might help my uncharacteristicly grim Weltanschauung? I am thinking that if it does not help me directly, at least it will benefit the finances of old GK (grins!)

"I mean beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

Perhaps spelling error?! - it should be "beauty is in the eye of beerholder"
