Vinyl is what records are made from, they are LP's, records, albums etc. Do you also collect clear polycarbonate plastic substrate, with a reflective metallic layer, and a clear protective coating of acrylic plastic ie cd's?

Great find on that High Numbers single! Wow....30p for a record that is now through the roof! And a great historical piece for a great band The Who.

Get a scratch on a record, you can fix it, but when your cc’d skips on your favorite song, it becomes useless trash- vinyl is superior by far- it is hardy and stands the test of time.

This hobby is missing two key consumers: Women and Teenagers. I'm 65 and I get it but seeing all old guys at stores or shows doesn't help.

Fast forward to 2023: people get into tape/casettes and CD's because vinyl's got to expensive.... the industry just never learns, does it ...

The sound and packaging of vinyl is awesome

You have 300 more videos on vinyl resurgence to go. It’s novelty and nostalgia driven not quality.

I view my CDs as a safety copy of my LPs. A go to to listen to the music. CD cases, for the most part, are cheap, highly breakable and have minimized art work. I can’t see them as being collectible any time soon. If they didn’t hold the CD I could see them as “throw away”.

2022 and it's only got larger. Just about every major current artist releases new material on vinyl now. Adele's latest album released at the end of 2021 has sold over 500 thousand copies on vinyl alone already.

CD is much more attractive than 12' record. CD is also better quality and you can apreciate the music much more.

Vinyl sucks....sick& tired of vinyl haul show offs..............& audio system obsessives.spending absurd sums of money for minuscule improvements in sound....just enjoy whatever works for you...cassette...cd...download...streaming....etc

I got this for fuck all back in the 80’s and sold it for the price of a house! It’s because i’m better than you!! That’s the vinyl community now full of lucky show off’s!!!!

2021 and the surge continues.

I collect music media, LPs and CDs mostly but even now its a dying industry. In the peak CDs sold 800 million units in a year. Both don't sell a fraction of what they used to. There still is money to be made selling LPs and CDs but its just a novelty at this point. I just wish all LPs sold with MP3 downloads then I would never buy CDs, thats the only reason I primacy buy them because I can't listen to an LP while going for a walk lol.

7:29 Anyone Who owns and plays their Precious Expensive Vinyl on this Monstrosity, Walk away from No! better still Run, for they know Nothing about Records. These things are the New Amstrad and We all know how bad they were. People are now wising up to just how Bad CD's really are. 16bit Compressed crap just like Wav, Flac and worst of all MP3's. Where Tape and Vinyl DVD's and better still Blu-Ray sail way above In the Quality Stakes. The worst thing Is "Greedy Dealers" Overpricing Records, It hurts even worse when You realize that they got them for Pennies.

I think today is the best time to enjoy music unlike any time in the past. If I’m at home I can play a record, or an open reel tape. On the road I have a cassette, CD, or streaming. As good as vinyl records and open reel tape is as a medium it’s impracticable when driving. I also like using digital as a way to see what physical music I would like to buy.

Ok these dudes express themselves their love for vinyl records i DO respect that :-)

Bev Nipps has to be the best name I've ever heard.

Could someone tell me a website where most of the classic rock vinyl covers appear in real size?

I feel sorry for kids today not growing up with vinyl. I feel sad to think what will happen to my collection when I'm gone.

Sorry, for 'maniac' collectors of music from the 1910s to 1940s who want to have it all, they have no choice but to go for CDs as the reissue companies for these eras of music put almost all of their releases in the CD format, which can store much more music. It would be physically and financially impossible for the collector (unless perhaps if they were multi-millionaires/billionaires) to track down and buy the original records and discs of such music. Most (80% and up) of the music have not been reissued on vinyl in the past half century or even been reissued at all since their original pressings.

0:09 was that meant to be there?

I don't always watch many vinyl documentaries. When I do, my interest in vinyl grows more and more.

FYI, there are folks making presses now.

Assuming there was a colorist or someone who online this, you should never use them again. Some pretty awful clips in this.

I only use Hi Res audio files on my DAC player only because its potable but you cannot beat the lovely art work on a record cover and holding it.

Damn that first record was warped to hell!

Vinyl just engages all of your senses more so than any other format (unless you include attending a live concert as a format lol). Vinyl offers more physical interaction, more visual interaction, frankly more smells, etc. than any other format. Somewhere along the line the industry tricked people into giving up using some of their sense to take in music. Really is no different than someone making you believe that it will be better for your relationship if you touched, smelled, and physically interacted with you partner LESS!!! Most of us know when you LOVE your partner your love and connection goes deeper when you touch, smell, see, and physically interact with the MORE! ....Well music and I have been in a deep Love for DECADES now!!

Could you have chosen a more warped record??

I've got thousands of 'em...but snap, crackle & pop is the norm---prefer CDs for the music---Vinyl for artwork

It forces you to sit and listen, as opposed to hit play and walk away.

store them proper! www.plattenkreisel.com/home-en-us

2:45 The Who changed their name to "The High Numbers" briefly in 1964 before changing it back to "The Who".

THE TROGGS are rubbish? FUCK YOU!

And we hip hop producers walk in the shadows of all this. "got to keep you fingers dusty."

Listen, 20 years from now, the video cassette will come back!

nobs

thanks for sony. new records keep comin

The coolest part of all this is that you can fit all those wonderful records on a single hard drive. And you can access them instantly and they never wear out. You can even back them all up in case of a fire, theft, or other disaster. Anyway, I'm off to my bloodletting appointment to treat my sore throat. I can't get into to those fancy new therapies. I like the way they did it in the old days.

Vinyl, actually the analog signal, is simply warmer and more fun to hear. The LP sleeves are tactile and more fun to view. That's all it is really.

I feel like a lot of people who buy records nowadays (including myself) listen to alternative/Pop-Punk/hardcore music. A lot of pop artists don't release Vinyl. pop/punk and the alternative scene every album has a vinyl and multiple versions at that. Also though I advocate for music streaming cause I can find new bands that I wouldn't listen to, and then go buy that album on vinyl.

I have a Love\Hate...mostly hate relationship with CDs|DVDs! The sound is good, the size is fantastic and you can load them up with material. THE major problem is they scratch too easily! "Skips" or pixilated images drive me up the wall! Flipping the record to listen to the other side? No problem.

Hey guys, I made a documentary style short film about collectors of vinyl records for my Honours major work. It's on my channel, please check it out!

8 min 32 secs . That beard is shit.
