    When I heard that vinyl records were making a comeback, at first I thought it was a collective joke (like a flash mob or something,) then I realized it was a massive practical joke being played on people.

    But after seeing this news piece, which is the next “logical” step on the path back to the Edison wax cynlinder photograph, by way of the 8-track tape, I’m convinced this is far more sinister. They’re just trying to burn the word to the ground.

      Lol. Nah nostalgia is fairly predictable. It's often a thing you caught a whiff of as it disappeared, that in your youthful lack of deep understanding saw the thing more in its idealized form, minus the flaws that build with experience.

      Targets of nostalgia are kinda necessarily N-1 things, not often N-2 or more. Roughly speaking.

      But there's a social component that makes it more fun -- participatory art of making things, vinyl, sleeves, new sounds, etc. Then the medium doesn't matter much at all.

      After all it is recorded sound and THAT isn't obsolete.

      If it gets you off, do it. Nothing is true; all is permitted.
