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.

Tvad, heck, no one understands me anyhow(Do you think it would help if I used less parentheses?).

I don't get the impression people don't understand you, but writing with fewer parenthetical comments would make your posts easier to read, IMO.

Tvad, I appreciate your heads-up about my writings. I can see it from your 12-step comments. I may deviate a little bit from the main subject from now on, but I can see that it is harder to follow what I'm saying when I use parenthesis.

Mmakshak, you've already completed Step 1...recognizing the problem.

Post on, audio friend.

Mmakshak,

"Isn't audio just a suspension of belief(or is that disbelief)?"

This question reminds me of a quote I heard recently (which sort of turns our audiophile world upside-down).

"Art is freedom from the truth".

Can't remember the source...

"Art is freedom from the truth".
I believe that was Art Dudley in Stereophile. Jax2 referrred to it within the last month.
