I'm not sure I can give any specific examples of how analog vs. digital has changed my life except for my ability to own more music. I can get music at the touch of a button on Itunes and I don't need to buy the entire CD. I can listen to thousands of songs and they take up no space in my room. Not to mention, I can carry around that same 4,000 songs in my hand where ever I go.
I like to think that I don't necessarly compare media opposed to appreciating it for it's different quality. There is something amazing about the idea that we can create anything on a computer and make it seem lifelike and real on the movie screen. There is also an essence of class that you can receive from a black and white film that can't be recreated the same today. It's wonderful to be able to listen to clear music anywhere I go.However, there is also something really wonderful about listening to an old record. It seems more like they are there in the room with you. The sound seems more real opposed to something created in a studio by computers.
The Pro's to Digital are: clearer picture and sound, ability to hold large amounts of music in a small space, better graphics for film, and cutting edge special effects.
The Pro's to Analog are: Clearer and more life like quality to the music, and an essence of class.
Con's to digital: often looses quality in some cases, able to loose music since it is all kept electronically, has large files that take up a lot of room on computers.
Con's to Analog: takes up space in home, may have poorer quality of sound, and little special effects done by computers.
