With equal quality amplification systems I'd be hard pressed to believe anyone could genuinely tell the difference in a blind challenge test. I think that's where the difference lies- most of the time CDs are played through desktops or crummy car 4" speakers that don't do the audio quality any justice. I've heard people say things like "ohhhh CDs compress the signal" or "ohhhhhh CDs chop up the signal and distort it" but without the highest fidelity equipment I just don't think it's really noticeable.
