Most CDs pressed after the mid-90's are audiological garbage not worth paying for.

If the waveform looks like this, I ain't buying it:

They usually have a higher bitrate than you can get from streaming. There's not one CD I have that I immediately tell the difference in quality of I switch between streaming (or even a standard mp3 actually) and a CD. CD wins every time.

So you have a crap master. Compare the same master between compact disc and vinyl when making your judgments.
