CD is a digital format..  Audio on a CD is stored digitally.
Cassette tapes were popular when I was growing up, but CDs had just come around too, so older formats such as vinyl were the old obsolete thing when I was growing up too.  It seems there are people who have always liked vinyl though.

One thing I liked about cassette tapes was that they were easy to record audio on, compared to vinyl and CD.  Even when CD-R discs came out, I don't recall ever seeing a stereo or anything where you could put in a CD-R disc, press a record button, and record from a mic or from the radio.  But it was nice to be able to burn onto a CD with a CD burner in a PC.
