I understand that to which I will say more in a second. My original laugh
was that a highly collectible vinyl record shouldn't have to be compared
to a CD at all, no matter how good its sound quality is. And I'm not
demoting CDs at all, my whole collection is digital and a lot of it comes
from CDs. The original quote sounds almost ironic.

More to your point, if some of those records are little treasures, the
emphasis should be on that, by how vintage they are and their
uniqueness. The CD quote is just out of context IMO.
