Science does not stand still - we would not have progressed beyond Faraday and Ohm if scientists had not been curious to explore observations that science at the time could not explain.
I honestly think we are still at the early development of science and technology. Assuming the rate of advances accelerates as it has over the last century and a half. In fifty years time, where we are now, will then look like the earlier steam age and first use of photography. Just my opinion mind you. What the future may hold should be mind boggling!!
Unless of course everybody is dead from apocalyptic war, mass contagion or starvation.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
