Yeah, mine is more suffering from doing discos and PA jobs for about 20
years.

I can’t really tell the difference between CD and AAC or MP3 these days,
but I can hear a significant different with vinyl, and can even tell
different cartridges apart (Ortofons sound awful to me, but a
Pickering/Stanton sounds good, and the green Audio Technica I ended up with
sounds great to me.

From what I’ve found over the last few days, no more than anyone else. All
of the options for uploading any kind of ripped CDs, in any format, have
all but disappeared now, perhaps only Apple still offers any kind of
solution at all.

There may be other options, but probably not for the average home user out
there.
