Vinyl records outsell CDs for the second year running
(www.theverge.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
For some people it’s definitely the aesthetic/collectible nature of vinyl. Anecdotally, for me, it’s for the listening pleasure. I’m no audiophile. I’m listening on potato speakers on a sub par turntable, but I like listening to records like I did when I was younger.
I do also love the much larger album sleeve artwork, but my primary drive in purchasing an album is to listen to it on my turntable.
Me too...I hate it when a band releases a record and they don't do anything to the jacket though.
