i Dj and i buy vinyl, but i also collect vinyl
i have heard of many people buying records (new ones, with dance music even) simply so they can have up to date songs - in dance music it can be months or even years or never between a song coming out on vinyl and its CD release..
most rock albums are available on vinyl as well, and not many DJ's play that kind of stuff
i just like collecting music whatever the format, although i rarely buy tapes nowadays
I think it can be said that vinyl is cooler. But it should also be said that CDs are more practical. I've got a box of vinyl and no player...must get my shit together.
Yeah, I buy vinyl for the reason grusome mentioned. There's just so much good music that doesn't reach CD... or if it does, it's years later. There are some things I also prefer the sound of on vinyl... I hope I don't open a can of worms on that, but dance tracks mastered for vinyl often sound "hotter" to me, in a good way.
Vinyl's also cool for finding amazing albums for $2 in Woodville or somewhere...
But for convenience sake I almost always go with CD if both options are available.
i wonder if there should be a CD-R category? i haven't bought a redbook/audio format CD for a long while, but i have bought a lot of CD-Rs - self-published albums and EPs by bands.
Like the other people trying to get their shit together...I have a collection of vinyl a turntable but nothing to plug it into. 8-(
There is nothing like vinyl, though CD's are great for convenience. Some of my old fave's are only on Vinyl. No matter how much technology advances I will always maintain my Vinyl.
i prefer vinyl, not only because of the sound and how it lasts (trying playing a scratched cd..), but also because a lot of stuff is either expensive on cd (mainstream / underground classics).. or not even available. of course, a lot of stuff isn't available on vinyl, so i do buy cds, too.
Yeah, but try playing a scratched record as well. There a little easier to scratch then CD's too. I *ahem* burn most of my cd's, and spend WAAAAY too much money on vinyl. Its an addiction. Vinyl sounds warmer, has more room for artwork (mmm double gatefold) and just feels nicer. You got this nice big heavy round thing that you can see the music (grooves) on. But try lugging a shitload of em to a gig. Not very light.
actually alot of metal/rock fans buy fans for collection purposes... A metaller wants everything his/her fave band brings out, vinyls are another thing to collect. My boyfriend has hundreds.
djs have to buy records cause they needed to practice mixing. Newayz, i think it's good to collect records, because your actually contributing to the artist you like. Beside it's nice to actually hold the real copy in your hands!
Ok, ok, I will ok? I was just saying stuff. I didn't mean to cause offense but if you gonna take offense well - let's just say it says alot about your personality, DUDE.
vinyl is the way to go u can revamp old school shit mix it in with beats riffs lyrics and other cool shit and record it onto a cd sell it to your mates
