Actually, it's way too easy to get awful snap crackle and pop from vinyl, and digital media at least spare us that.
But the large format album art ... especially when labels went to the trouble of making it double, opening like a large book, even for a single LP ...
Now a lot of people probably disagree with me, but having small cracks, pops and hissing sound (as long as they don’t hinder the listening experience) give the record an unique feeling. The record having these cracks and pops usually means it’s been used and liked.
But if you want the “perfect” experience, go for digital.
