Vinyl isn't dead yet...

That's supposed to be a special edition while a mass-produced version will come out later, price unknown.

I did not mean to imply that it was their only upcoming product.

The Vinyl Deception: Records are not as big as you think: Vinyl has risen from the dead over the last nine years, under the guise of superior audio quality and the full package of liner notes. ...

 I believe we?re giving records a lot more credit than they?re due. The reason: they are never played.

The Vinyl Revival is sucking the life and fun out of music collecting.
The upcoming younger audience of vinyl customers do not buy them to listen to. Vinyl falls into human's psychological urge to collect things

The band, Beach Fossils, will play a fictional "proto-punk" group from the 70's on the show. That's the band there in his sunglasses reflection.

The upcoming younger audience of vinyl customers do not buy them to listen to. Vinyl falls into human's psychological urge to collect things

I readily admit I buy vinyl for the tangible quality, graphic design and artwork at its best. But man do not get me started on the fucking stupid hipster cunts who, when asked why vinyl, their response is "It just sounds warmer." Seriously, what the fuck does that mean? You realize that:
A) vinyl degrades with every play
B) the so called "warmth" is just the snap crackle and pop of dust and scratches. "Warmth" generally is interpreted to mean the analog qualities of a recording, but hipsters rarely know that
C) if you know anything about the science of sound and the whole analog vs. digital loudness war debate, you'll realize that the digital remaster you're listening to on vinyl is an oxymoron
D) analog recordings have barely existed since the 90's when recording studios went digital. The only people I know that still use tape are Steve Albini and Dave Grohl, though I'm sure there are others.
E) and now these hipsters are trying to bring back cassettes? seriously? the worst possible vehicle for sound reproduction. The only thing worse would be one of these

Good to know, and I'm not necessarily surprised. I just don't really keep up on that. I'm personally OK with either format, they both have their advantages and disadvantages

for someone that just showed up last week you really seem to think you have all the answers..so wrong so much though..

 the vinyl degrades with every play bit is not true...I have records from the 1950s that sound fabulous even if they have been played... if I play a record today and then again tomorrow I don't notice any difference.. as long as I take care of my records, play it with a decent needle etc.. why should it degrade?

and even digital recordings often sound better on vinyl...in addition, a ton of new digital recordings have different masterings for vinyl than cd.. masterings that aren't ear bleeders or brickwalled as bad.. it makes a big difference

and how would you know people buy vinyl simply to collect it and not listen to it?

a ton of the vinyl people listen to is from when vinyl was analog and the cd counterparts- from when they were "digitalized" - sound pretty horrible in relative terms..

earlier today I went to a record store and picked up 14 slabs of vinyl for $20.. not one of them is from a digital source...

if you go to the record fair this weekend - I can't make it- you will notice 99% of the vinyl purchased is from analog tape.
