That's all well and fine, but put your vinyl into your CD player and listen to the incredible sound you get.
Note: Vinyl albums require no less than four folds to fit in most CD players. Due to the limitations of the analog medium some distortion may be heard !

I tried folding it 4 times and it's too thick to fit into the cd player, what do you suggest? Wink

You should be using the thinner, 90 gram vinyl not those bulky 200 gram ones. Think original "Crazy World of Arthur Brown" not original "Foxtrot".
It also helps if you pop it in the oven for a few minutes, makes the thing a little more pliable.

Of course vinyl sounds better than C.D. It's one word, just flows of the tongue, and ends with a soft "llll"

C.D. is two words. You whistle on the first with the "Ceee," and then you have the hard beginning in "Deee." The end is a vowel that just trails off to nowhere. 

Which would you rather hear?

No the CD sounded much better... More 'Avant Garde' with the 'ziiiiiioooghhhh'. sound it made...

I don't know what was on the CD, but I don't mind he didn't put it in his CD player... it sounded better than the vinyl. LOL

Nothing at all > Annoying sounds

That's the best argument, ever... Vinyl wins, hands down.

Clamp it in a mandrell and place that in a lathe, then gently turn the vinyl down to the correct diameter for a CD player.  Finally drillout the centre to the correct hole size and it will fit perfectly.
