Vinyl is a mechanical analog signal cut into grooves in the album shaped like a V groove.Left and right side,the needle converts it to your stereo. Reel to reel,cassette,and 8 track are tape with magnetic particles recorded onto it. Also analog. The tape head on your player converts it to a signal so you stereo can play it. CDs ,mp3,youtube,most tv signals are digital numbers converted through a Analog to Digital or a Digital to Analog converter so your stereo can play it. Hope this helps. Sorry about the one finger keyboard babble. Peace
Big fan. Can you tell a difference in vinyl vs. the other media. Please be honest.
Mr. Groot yes
