    Thanks everyone who responded for making me bite my tongue on the "talent"
    remark.
    Please note that I do respect people who use CDs and are good at it. A few
    friends of mine do.

    And I also did mention that I use CDs for tracks I can't get on vinyl. So
    it's not the same as 'the guitar guy' saying a turntable is not an
    instrument. They're right it's not. It's not even in the same category.

    I apologize if I offended any who use solely CDs, but my opinion is biased
    because I love vinyl. I am not dissing anybody who does as an artist, it has
    nothing to do with talent. I just wanted to make clear that it's not the
    same. One will not replace the other.

    ...I wish I could play the guitar.

    Love,
    Ridu
