What's Up With Vinyl?
Jackie Blue:
I've never rented a DVD that had scratches or skipped majorly, but that is probably balanced by the fact that the only DVDs I've really ever rented are reasonably far outside the mainstream and as such haven't been rented by many other people, or haven't been rented by the kind of jackasses who let their kids play frisbee with the DVD.
Also I generally rent new releases.
Still, I've had worse luck with video tapes. No matter what, any VCR can just up and decide to eat any video tape.
Rizzo:
I always find it amusing buying electronic artists, hell most rock artists too, on vinyl. These sort of bands record primarily on digital right? So they take an analogue signal, translate it to a lower quality digital copy (sampling rates etc as mentioned previously) and then transfer it back to analogue again for the vinyl.
Seems a little silly.
That said, I'll still buy vinyl over CDs given the choice and the right price.
Mp3 is still my current method of choice though. I own 8 vinyls, 200ish CDs and 28gig of mp3s. Each is still slowly building.

Oooooooh, I've done that. Well, not with actual DVDs, but with those AOL disks that are all over the place

I buy vinyl just because I think it's cool. I have some records that sound better on vinyl, and some that don't. It's really all about the mastering. The media makes very little difference.
Mostly vinyl just looks and feels a lot cooler to have around.
