Why am I not surprised I've seen this more than once, someone gawking at some old piece of technology, glossing over "the good old days", and manhandling the device not taking into account that it's still operational, in use, and the "zoomer kid" actually had the knobs and dials finely tuned and is reaching for their paddle.
I might or might not have bought an imperial buttload of converters so I can do stuff like outputting HDMI to ancient TV sets that only take those 300 ohm screw terminals, or the reverse, and all variants in-between. So hands off the fine tuning knob, you troglodyte.
…What?
This has nothing to do with "trusting digital music".
It's the same reason why people choose to shoot photography on film instead of digital sometimes. Partly nostalgia, partly for the novelty and partly for the different feel of the process of listening/developing and the end results will also sound/look distinctive.
