Well there are real differences, not just prejudices.

Yes I know that vinyl's sampling rate isn't infinite, I said tending towards infinity.

Can someone who knows please explain the 'bit' thing to me/us? I assumed, perhaps wrongly, that 96kHz would give better resolution than 44.1kHz. If this assumption IS wrong, why do studios record at higher sampling rates? I mean, what's the point?

Also does anyone know anyone who has both formats & prefers CD to LP on sound quality grounds? I guess there must be one, there always is!
