LP Sounds Are Far Superior

* Regarding your Newswatch article May 19 on the death of LP vinyl records: The public will never stand for this sham on the consumer’s dollar. Every rational person who has ever listened carefully to a vinyl LP versus a CD comparison of the same recording agrees that the LP sounds far superior.

Indeed the writers of the recent blockbuster film, “Indecent Proposal,” chose to have Robert Redford’s billionaire character--who would only have the finest musical reproduction apparatus in his home--court his love interest with a top of the line turntable rather than CD player.

Why has the public gone wow over CDs? How can this tragedy be stopped?
