It's interesting how vinyl is making a comeback when they are really expensive compared to regular CD's, but then again people buy vinyls for the packaging. Not many artists do great packaging with CDs anymore, just a standard jewel case with a basic ass album cover.
I really enjoyed the first two seasons of The Killing which I was under the impression were Netflix originals. Except only the last season was actually produced by Netflix and it was horrible.
I loved The Killing. It was refreshing to see a frumpy female detective, not a fierce one with designer clothes and a $300 haircut
idgi do all those who are buying vinyls own a gramophone or w/e too? Do they even use them other than looking at them? or being able to say 'they bought a vinyl'? I get that it sounds better but isn't it a bit inconvenient all together?

Plus an influx of (young) purists who think music sounds much better on vinyl than in digital format/on CD. (Is this even true? I have never really noticed a significant difference.)
I have friends who exclusively buy vinyl and don't use any digital form of music, or if they do they use it very sparingly, and I find that a bit weird, though.

It's the nicest way to collect music. A shelf filled with vinyls looks much more stunning than an ITunes lirbary .
Also, I think artists make much more money off of Vinyls than from streaming or digital downloads so it's a great way to give back to the artist.

I think vinyl is the most "lossless" form of music so it should actually sound better, not "Tidal better".
The hierarchy of sound quality goes something like:
1. Vinyl
2. CD
3. iTunes
4. Streaming formats
Basically the more you compress a sound, the less quality is has.

No it's not true, but it creates some distortion that makes the music sound better to some.
If we are discussing vinyls, hope you all turn on your TV's to watch Martin Scorsese's and Terence Winter's (Boardwalk Empire, The Sopranos, Wolf of Wall Street) show this year:
Hm, I don't listen to vinyl often. I'm one of those people who mainly has a collection because it is just that: a collection. But occasionally I will notice things on a song that I hadn't really noticed when I'd listened to it on my iPod, or on CD. I don't know. It's not a huge difference for me but maybe that's just me.
