Ten years ago you … Ten years ago you couldn’t find almost any new album made on vinyl. Now… just about every new release on indie labels has a vinyl version come out with it.
@RetroRepair Wrong … @RetroRepair Wrong! There is a revival of Vinyl, just look in the HiFi magazines. You can buy new High-End players and there are new LP’s comming out.
CDs will always be … CDs will always be preferred over MP3s by audiophiles because of the encoding. CDs use raw audio and you get zero compression artifacts.
Interesting how each new audio format degrades in quality. It’s also interesting how as companies have enticed people to after box sets with elaborate artwork and design, people have started downloading music.
I think this is … I think this is such an exciting time for music. Vinyl is getting popular again, so we still have that quality audiophile sound available, but we also have the internet, where musicians/producers can get heard almost anywhere through mediums like Myspace and Youtube. Could you have a library of 250 GB of music in vinyl form? Technically yea, but not everyone can get on vinyl or get on Virgin vinyl.
Sure, vinyl as we … Sure, vinyl as we know it today has been around for over 60 years and vinyl sales are on the rise again. CD’s caught on properly in the late 80’s. 20 years later, CD sales are falling in favour of digital media. I think as far as mainstream distribution goes, itunes and MP3’s are unfortunately the future of music. But vinyl will always have a good market, something that CD’s will eventually lose forever.
The advantage of … The advantage of thicker records, I think, is that they do a better job of damping vibrations, thus reducing “rumble” and feedback. It’s the same reason a heavy turntable is better than a plastic one.
Some of the records … Some of the records you can buy today may be better than many of those sold in the 70’s and 80’s since during those decades, the big record companies started pressing thinner records and using recycled (as opposed to virgin) vinyl to cut their costs. Today it’s not uncommon to find 180 gram, virgin vinyl records.
30 years from now, … 30 years from now, I bet I’ll still be able to listen to my records. I’m not sure the same thing can be said for CDs or mp3s or any digital format.
we will always have … we will always have records, because there will always be a demographic who will buy them. Cassette/CD/MP3 has made records “obsolete”, however they have been “hip” for sometime now. As long as putting on a record looks and feels sexy to people, they will exist.
