What's with the records?

Lalaladida:
Ok, so if people want to listen to records, that's fine, I don't really care.

I just have one question: WHY???


I just don't understand it at all. Maybe people who listen to them like big things, and they are bigger than CDs? Maybe they stay at home all day or don't like to listen to music the car, or when they're walking? Nostalgia? Like the crackling noises over the music when they get a bit old?


Plus, with CDs, you can put them on your computer and it's very convenient a lot of the time.

I listen to my parents' old records sometimes, but just because it would be a hassle to get them on CD. I don't think they sound better or anything.

yipjumpmusic:
bigger cover art?  Hmm...the singles that are only available on vinyl like pinback's todo.  ...and yes, also the non logical, neato factor that throws out practical reasoning.  Hmm maybe others can explain better cause I don't feel like going beyond that now.

KharBevNor:
Oddly enough, metal has never really had a vinyl culture. I blame it on the fact that most smaller metal labels live off international orders, and CD's and tapes are just so much more convenient to mail without getting destroyed.

MilkmanDan:
Because they are fucking cool.
Duh.

Also, I'm a DJ, so records have many rather large advantages over CDs. And yes, you can get CD DJ Decks, and no, they're not as good.

yipjumpmusic:
Also some will say something like it has a warmer sound but it is just not as good in quality (though I must mention I have 3 record players so don't think I am against records)....wait...this sounds familiar, I think there was a thread on this before
