You're comparing methods of production to methods of consumption. Film is still a thing and so is tape. Audio and video are different worlds.

Let me ask you this, as a monkey that carried A/V equipment into houses for the other guy to install it in luxury homes.
I get the appeal of analog "authenticity," which is like vinyl vs. FLAC. However, I also helped install 2? gauge (as thick as my thumb) oxygen free speaker wire around some dude's living room doorways at hundreds of dollars a linear foot (mid 90s). If the authenticity is the point, wouldn't an audiophile shun apparent excesses like that, which seem to push analog closer to digital sound profiles?
