Not sure if you are joking or not...

I think vinyl is the best way to go right now for music purchases. You get a large version of the album artwork, and all the inserts, etc that go with it. Most of the time as well, you get a digital download card. So not only do you get a nice piece of artwork to look at and display while you play an album, but You also get a digital copy. All for under $20. Some times under $10.

Ive got a record player space for listening to records, and I have my bluetooth devices to do spotify. If I am humming or singing a song or songs off an album long enough, I feel the obligation to buy the LP.

I used to rip CDs like crazy, download like crazy, trade with other people, and store all this digital music. The organization required alone is maddening and ultimately caused me to give up on all that. Ive got about a TB of music from 1900-2015...i slowed down considerably after 2015.

I have NOT had luck with zenpoint. It only recognizes a portion of my music, and when I retagged with picard, it recognized even less. I gave up. Takes an hour to load up too, very annoying.

Typical old man opinion. Look around, its not all on the radio

Thumbs mean nothing other than i dont agree with you. Dont take them personally. This isnt Facebook.

Dude, they sell vinyl at crate and barrel. Its back baby.

Im just saying that if its made its way into retail furniture outlets, then its definitely on the upswing. Ive seen then at target as well.

There are a few really big record shops out here too, doing very well
