The "wave of the future" is digital music files. basically MP3s wih higher sampling rates, and thus higher fidelity. CDs are limited in fidelity by their sampling rate which doesn't allow them to reproduce the entire harmonic spectrum of the music. Vinyl, which as minstrel noted is technically superior to CD's, depreciates in fidelity the more frequently its played and also requires a $$$$ sound system to really even notice the difference.
