Neil Young claims Steve Jobs preferred listening to music on vinyl Feb 1st 2012, 10:20 Canadian musician Neil Young has claimed in an interview that Steve Jobs preferred listening to music played back on vinyl rather than digitally via an iPod. Speaking to Peter Kafka and Walt Mossberg at the D: Dive Into Media conference, he told them that he discussed the prospect of offering higher quality digital music downloads with Steve Jobs. "Steve Jobs was a pioneer of digital music, and his legacy is tremendous," Young said. "But when he went home, he listened to vinyl. And you've gotta believe that if he'd lived long enough, he would have eventually done what I'm trying to do." Young claims that modern digital music is so highly compressed that 95 percent of the audio content is lost. He believes that Steve Jobs was working on a solution to the problem but since his death, there has been no further discussions with Apple.
