What is the main difference between analog and digital technology?

• Digital technology reproduces sound more faithfully than analog technology

• Analog technology stores information as sound waves; digital technology stores it as strings of ones and zeroes

• Analog technology can be used to record sound and images; digital technology can only be used to record sound

• Analog technology is based on binary code; digital technology is based on electromagnets
