LP or CD?

Before I started appreciating music like I do now, I used to be content with buying a CD, ripping it, and then losing it. I sometimes download things that I've never heard, but don't care enough to buy, but now I'm trying to buy as many LPs as I can. I really enjoy owning a physical piece of music and trying to appreciate the artwork and time put into a good record. I've purchased a few LPs lately that have had digital copies in them but haven't really used them.

So what do you prefer: LP's or CD's?

Explain your answer: Its cool to see how other people think. After all: that's my major.
