This thread is for the discussion of vinyl, and vinyl only. Please do not post about your CDs or cassette tapes in this thread. Please keep memes, low-effort replies, and shitposting to a minimum. These threads are meant to be mature, in-depth discussions of the superior format, for true collectors and serious music fans. If somebody comes into this thread to slam vinyl, or buying physical media, ignore them. Do not give them any (you)s, and try to keep the thread on topic instead of arguing. Here are a few questions to get the discussion started.

Used mostly unless a good release or re-release comes along.
>what is your most valuable record?
I suspect it's an original issue of Strangeways, Here We Come by the Smiths which has a part-green part-grey title engraving. I've never found another copy like it and I'm tempted to get it valued one day.

Assemblage by Japan
Ziggy Stardust 12" by Bauhaus
Seven And The Ragged Tiger by Duran Duran
Dance With Me 12" by Lords Of The New Church

Nothing special, I use them a lot (don't intend to ever sell them) so I'm not fussy about keeping them boxed away anywhere.

>These threads are meant to be mature, in-depth discussions of the superior format
>superior format

And this is why you're not getting serious responses. Get your head out of your ass. There's pros and cons to both vinyl and CD

kys

superior means better, vinyl is always better thant CD, so go to listen soundcloud rap and let the people enjoy their hobbies and have a good time

>superior means better

You fuck off. You suggest you want mature discussion, yet you say arrogant shit like this. Enjoy your clumsily big and hard to maintain medium you horse's ass

>vinyl

nice post user

I collect records and you're still a complete fucking moron. Both you and OP need to grow up. "For true collectors and music fans"? Fuck off.
