I don't think he is off at all with his last statement. It's no different than the people that think the old blank and white movies were better just because they are nostalgic. What they long for has nothing to do with the quality of the music. The rice crispies that some people love with vinyl isn't present when listening to someone sing live. The people I have heard talk about it don't love it because it sounds better, they love it because it brings back memories.
