What's driving this? Is it organic or did (somebody) buy all this garbage when it was basically free and are now trying to make people buy it again?
People like to actually own the shit they pay for and not have it taken away because of a license disagreement or a service being discontinued. Plus,if I buy a record,I buy it once. I'm not giving fuckin' Spotify $10 a month to listen to the same thing.

>>534066088>What's driving this?Harder to use, requires intelligence.
>>534066088>What's driving this?Exclusion of females via complexity
>>534066088Every few years they rotate technologies like people rotate tires so people to rebuy the same content. I remember when they killed vinyl and stories of companies melting down records. Such a scam.
Records have been popular "again" since the 2010s and with millenials.
>>534066088>What's driving this?Connection to the past, when life was (supposedly) less complicated.
>>534066088>"vintage" camerasIt takes precisely zero effort to figure out that digital cameras are slop.The resolution requirements to achieve "photorealism" are baffling.
>>534066088I mean, the second thing did probablu happen but that wouldn't drive new releases of vinyl the maybe see now. Its the fact buying stuff is the only expression people still have, not even subculture just the stuff. And so physicall stuff that arguably sounds better is worth a lot more than ybe shitty downloads people are stuck with now.
>>534068735Yup film is strictly superior to digital imaging. It has nothing to do with nostalgia or some other cope. I'm glad people are coming back around to it. I hope companies start producing new high quality 35mm cameras again. Nikon only discontinued the F6 in 2020 so it's not like this is lost technology or something.
>crave a record player>get a cheap one off Amazon>go to local record store to browse>bring something home>play it>have to fuck with it again in 30 minutesIt was a good reminder on why I like modern technology, and it has a Bluetooth player built in so that's nice
>>534069100It's a piece of shit, what a waste of time and money.
>>534066088>What's driving this?Nostalgia for a promised future that never came.
People once thought everything would get better.It didn't
>>534069100>>534069459it was called the juke box, and it was awesome
>>534070901This. Love those retro 50s diners with the mini ones at every table.
>>534066088Vinyl is an objective superior sound experience, with the added benefit of being able to physically own the music, instead of renting it from spotify or storing it as binary code on a computer.>B-But all the music is old!Good. If I have any inclination to listen to Lil Fent and the Ooga Booga Boys I'll get back to you on this one.
Is it time to sell all the games from my childhood? I mostly play old games on emulators these days.
>>534066088Aren't vinyls expensive as fuck nowadays? Anyway, there's no good reason for this, old media tech is by and large inferior. Zoomers grew up with smartphones and want to experience the physicality of old machines, millennials just get nostalgic, but it's just to satisfy a temporary want, and those who stick to it are simply posers.
>>534074941If you don’t plan on playing them or bother cleaning them, maybe sell or gift.Even if you just like looking at them, keep. I have games i don’t play but i would be disturbed if I cant go look at them.
>>534066088The future is nothing but poverty, AI slop, Indians & government overreach. People are desperate to go back in time. Every day I think about chucking my smart phone in the trash, it's not an easy decision when the kikes made it ubiquitous with modern living and you can't get a job if employers find out you don't have a phone.
