Vinyls are gay & performative while CDs are practical and for music & phyiscal media lovers
Bands should just sell download codes .
FLACs from rutracker and a CD release are bit-for-bit identical. Each master of a vinyl record is distinct and subtly different, giving some kind of reward to the obsession over physical objects
>>129279971this is what millennials said in 2008-10 when vinyl was having a slight resurgance especially among indie labels. zoomies have nothing new to say and are living off fumes of past gens. you’re 25 years late to cd, at least. and your lives are going to goodwill and reconstructing old tech. in 5 years you’ll sell it all and be back to digital
>>129279971vinyl can sound better than CD in some cases (mostly because of the botched brickwalled mastering, not because it's an intrinsically better format) and it's cool as as a collectable object, with the big artwork and all.I like both of them actually, and I still buy albums in different formats depending on what I can find.
