Here's why one might want analog out. I do....

Posted by AbeCollins on August 3, 2014 at 11:16:45:

We have our flat screen TV mounted on the wall above the fireplace mantle with just enough room to place a wide sound bar on the mantle just below the TV.

The sound bar has digital and analog inputs. I prefer analog because we can use the TV remote to control the analog output level from the TV driving the sound bard.

Had we used a digital output from the TV, we would have been forced to use the remote control that came with the sound bar to adjust it's volume, having to deal with two remotes instead of one (TV Remote & bar remote).

Sometimes analog is just much more convenient. Our Sony has variable analog out and the next TV we get will require it too.
