Are we forgetting the fact that vinyl’s sound is created by running a sharp needle over a plastic surface? Every time you play a record, you’re degrading the item. A CD, on the other hand, only gets scratched if you’re a bumbling fool….

I think the music industry may be willing to go back to Vinyl for another reason….its hard to pirate Vinyl records! I mean with a CD, I rip it to my computer, save the files on another disk or flash drive and give them to anyone I want. I can also go to the library and rip a CD and return it while still having the album…you can’t do that with a Vinyl record.

I must say I agree with all the posts, especially Bob’s about the cover art. I also have been collecting vinyl since the mid-60’s and now have a decent sized collection. I love to check out the artwork and read the liner notes, plus the Inner Sleeves that Columbia used to use to give you info about other albums that were available at the time. And, like Bob, I have bought many an album just because the cover was interesting. In fact, I am a huge Barclay James Harvest fan, and first bought their “Gone To Earth” album because of the cover! Sometimes you win, and sometimes the artwork is the only good thing about the album.
