Well, if you two people actually tried to analyse what I said originally:
"when most of his peers (and many other sheep) are going digital"
..you might realise that I'm not referring to all people that play music digitally, rather the many people who have merely followed what others are doing, purely because it seems like 'the thing to do'. And there are LOTS of these people. I spoke to a couple of distributors about Vath on 'Slices' and all agreed that it was a positive thing - maybe if some of you worked in this business and realised the positive value of things such as this, you might understand why people like Sven Vath are to be applauded.
Apologies if I didn't make myself fully clear. Anyway, there's a Format Wars - Mp3 vs Vinyl debate thread above if you want to carry it on with someone else.
