Comparing seedee's to vinyl...Vinyl has such a greater frequency response than redbook that it is really an unfair comparison.
Since the emergence of SACD and DVD-A the gap has closed so recently-recorded music using these new digital formats has a chance to sound as good--and sometimes better than--vinyl.
There is also the possibility of downloading "studio master" quality hi-rez digital to a music server. Probably this is the way of the future but not much softerware is availble, yet.
Most of my attentive listening is with vinyl.
