Vinyl is better sonically. You have absolutely no idea what youre talking about. I'm not an elitist/snob/self proclaimed "audiophile", but i have a good Vinyl setup and you would be embarased to hear the vinyl vs mp3 and remember the things you've written here. mp3/flac is more convinient.

The boxes are quite light weight and they do not ask you to pay much as duty fees. They are extra protective when compared to the other cases. They have a protective coating of foam. When you buy cases, only go for customized ones that are specific to equipment because it has to remain safe and tight when they are traveling. Too much of shaking will lead to hitting on the sides of the case itself and thereby causing damage to the equipment. There are also very specialized cases that let you take them while you fly.

I remember reading a WAV vs 320kbps mp3 test like this where people simply couldn't spot the difference. I wonder if it would be the same for vinyl & mp3.

If I want warm sound I just hook up a cd or mp3 player to an old Sansui stereo or tube amp. I feel this gets me the depth and warmth without the problems that come with vinyl. I have some vinyl but if I were to switch my mp3 and flac collection to vinyl I would loose a room in my house to store it. I feel I am exposed to more music by not limiting myself to vinyl.
