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.


My intention was never to appear I had all the answers. Your response was educational and if I ever sound uneducated I am more than happy for someone to call me out on it, however data to back it up is suggested. (hence my rant about hipsters claiming vinyl sounds better without science to back it up) That being said I am curious...

Regarding vinyl degradation... most styli are made of either a metal or stone material. Vinyl is in fact fairly delicate. I would think metal/stone rubbing against vinyl would degrade it, regardless of how well you take care of it.

my rant really was geared toward things like this https://jgtwo.wordpress.com/2011/10/07/the-guy-who-remastered-nevermind-doesnt-care-if-you-think-its-too-loud/

there is a "hipness" and "smugness" aspect to vinyl that seems bizzarro but I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater...
