Default Comparing digital files/sources to each other and to vinyl...

It`d be great to hear your thoughts on this. What are your findings when comparing

streaming (f.e. Tidal) in CD Quality
streaming (f.e. Tidal) in MQA Quality
streaming ripped CDs as FLAC from an external drive
playings CDs directly from CDP/CDT

and finally

playing Vinyl from your analog deck.

I have been busy diving into the whole streaming business and I have done a lot of comparing (I think I have posted enough of my findings on the other threads) - but of course I dived into the whole subject with prejudice (as I am a fan of physical media and I love my collection).

It would be great to hear other peoples thoughts/findings on this. Are they all pretty much up paar, do you prefer one or the other, does one stand out clearly?

Just talking plain SQ - not the handling and practical advantages/disadvantages.
