that's shit
Do you still buy vinyl? Why? It's inconvenient and a pointless affectation. I bet you don't even have a turntable, you hipster prick.

No offence like.

I never really have bought vinyl, before my time innit.
bought a few acid techno and dnb tunes when I tried beat matching. Gave the tables away in the end though, and the records

Vinyl is crap
Always has been, always will be. I have spent too much time with 'Audiophiles'* to bother arguing any more.

*Tosspots with more money than sense who will pay for 'unidirectional** copper wire' at £50/metre and £300 speaker stands for better 'room connection'*** and wouldn't know an RT60 measurement or a pink noise frequency analysis if it bit them on the nads.

**No such thing.
*** See above.

As a nerdish collectable, vinyl is probably good for the obsessive types
As a medium for the reproduction of sound it's deeply flawed

One of my mates dad used to buy into this bollocks. Oxygen free cables that cost more than my car. He then used to put his mucky finger prints all over his records and chuck them on the carpet, which was covered in dog hair.

The juddery and distorted picture and sound really add to the character of the films. It was how they were meant to be seen, I think.

We now have problems getting little bugger to stay quiet for more than 2minutes :0/ I got to meet my other son a couple of years ago as well which was rather emotional.

I actually have quite a huge vinyl collection that I haven't touched in years.
It's all 90s dance and trance though so is probably worth nout and will end up in in a landfill somewhere when I next move house.
