As a vinyl collector myself I don't have anything against it, but it's not the sound quality that's better it's the cover art. Anyone who says the sound quality is better is a fucking idiot. Unless you have some super audiophile fully analogue equipment you're not gonna get a better sound. Besides most things are pressed digitally so you're not getting better quality anyways.

except records from the 60s and 70s when records were mastered for analog DO sound better than the shitty digital remasters 99% of the time.
no reason to buy vinyl copies of most records after the 90s though, other than for packaging and all.

Vinyl is the best futureproof format. Simple for future aliens to deduce how they work, unlike CDs and magnetic tape. There's a reason why Scientology bought out most of the DMM machines in the 80's and are using them to record Hubbard's speeches and keeping them safe in a bunker somewhere in the desert.
>>
>>68204113

except for the fact that every time you play a record you lose a little fidelity. might a mint vintage copy sound better on the first play? maybe. on the thousandth play? highly unlikely

>Professional estimates for the stylus surface temperature during playback are 300-500 °F. Obviously, the temperature of the record is at or close to room temperature except at the stylus contact point - otherwise the record would completely melt. Back-to-back playback will introduce slightly more distortion than a fresh play. This is believed to be a temporary effect and goes away after approx. 10 minutes.
>Repeated playback (no matter what the timeframe) carries the risk of permanent damage. Obviously, records are observed to wear out with repeated play. No published evidence exists of back-to-back playback causing any more permanent damage than if repeated plays are separated by any longer period of time.

It requires 1000 plays to even begin the sound degradation. Vinyl is not like wax cylinders or shellac, which both wear out in a few plays. You're seriously underestimating vinyl.
Also don't play them on a Crosley like a bitch.

>Repeated playback (no matter what the timeframe) carries the risk of permanent damage.

lol, no it doesn't. the sound degradation starts the first time you play the record
>>
>>68203904
can't hear your complaining over all this surface noise
>>
>>68204525
I meant noticeable sound degradation.
There's this theory that after the first playback you should wait for 20 minutes maybe to "cool it down", otherwise it'd speed up the material degradation, but it's nothing more than a theory, there's no evidence or facts to back that up.

>>
>>68204525
you realize you're misunderstanding that quote right
they're debunking the myth that repeated back-to-back playing is degrades vinyl and that spacing out plays will help with this. they are just noting that, regardless of time frame, repeated plays will extremely gradually degrade the quality of a record, and that no amount of time spent waiting for the record to "cool down" will change that.
no one here is claiming that records don't degrade over time, but it's pretty well established that it takes an incredibly large number of plays of a single record before any amount of degradation occurs

Vinyl records exist for 70 years now. Plenty of old records, conservatively (not in a paranoid way) played and well-kept will still sound good. CDs are only 30 years old, and while there are CDs from back then that still play whole, some others already suffered from disc rot.

there is none, with the one extremely specific exception of old records which haven't been digitally remastered well yet. a lot of digital remasters suffer from the loudness wars and sound like shit so the only good masters are the ones mastered for analog, pressed to vinyl.
that's literally it. and nobody itt ever said otherwise, so i don't know why you're stomping your proverbial foot down here and acting like you're challenging us to say something we have literally been saying this entire time.

anyone who isn't a braindead fuck buys vinyl over cds/digital because of the packaging, and the interactivity.
if you want my own personal reasons besides liking blown up cover art, liner notes, inserts, etc., my short answer would be "bargain bins". i generally spent 5 dollars or less on my records because i'm into enough old music that was released when vinyl was the only option that i can find a ton of stuff i like in bargain bins. i've literally never bought a new record. gotten some as gifts, but i've never spent money on one.
hitting bargain bins and grabbing some cheap 3 dollars records with cool cover art is a fun and cheap way to discover new music. i go record shopping once a month and take about 20 bucks out of my monthly budget to just hit a record store and go to town.
you really gotta relax, anon. getting this mad over something that doesn't affect you is unhealthy

Your pathetic need to be an individual blinds you to the evidence. People who know music, listen to it all of the time and compose it buy vinyl because it is superior. Only utter peasants listen to it on their computers or buy CDs. You haven't heard a piece of music until you've either heard it live or heard it vinyl

Vinly is really just a way to connect better to your collection. All the positives are true (sound quality, etc) as are the negatives. But it's not about that. Listen to records, you got to slow down. There's physical packaging to deal with, forces you to interact with it. So you read the liner notes, admire the artwork. Laying it on the platter, pressing play. Changing records. You have to pay attention. Too many fucktards on this board want a terabyte drive to carry around and leave on shuffle. But want to walk around, "I'm so patrician. I have a bunch of songs from some east European autist transgender memerapper I downloaded off youtube. But I don't know the song titles or anything about the artist's process or who else worked on the songs.". Get the fuck over yourselves if you've got a problem with people who choose to interact with their media on different levels. It's not wrong to care about music on--wait for it--a fucking music discussion board.

So you guys can't even come up with one (ONE!) legitimate reason then?
You wanted to have a vinyl thread, we're damn sure having one now!
Here, I'll post it again.

If you can't understand that people might do things for non entirely practical reasons, then no, no one will every be able to give you a good answer. Sorry.

No, you haven't. Not once in this entire thread.

by this point, even if you were baiting, this would still be embarrassing because none of the replies to you are people getting mad.

yep, I have
not buying it exclusively for the music does not make my reasons for buying it illegitimate

i'm honestly convinced this guy would forego basic human needs like food and sleep to continue shitposting itt

You most certainly have not.

There is no reason. People collect vinyl for reasons entirely other than the music. I'm sorry you can't accept that.

I know there's no reason. I'm just here to rub your faces in it.

>>68206531
Exactly.
You still can't come up with a single reason vinyl is superior to digital concerning the music itself.
>>
>>68206535
rubbing what in our faces?
I'm not sure what's wrong with it
again, if you're "rubbing" me buying things I enjoy in my face then thanks I guess

So what's the best record store in portland, OR? Thinking about starting a record/CD collection and want to know where to. I've looked up stuff and I know a few places I want to check out, but I want to know if /mu/ has any secrets. I like metal and electronic.
>>
>>68206584
yeah but nobody here was claiming that there was one. you're just arguing for the sake of arguing
master ruse
>>
>>68206602
not from portland but i'm gonna operate under the assumption that there are a fuckton of options there, so you should have no problems
>>
>>68206602
make your own record store
>>
>>68206635
Oh there are, I was just kinda blindly hoping for recs and trying to not give the autist (you)s. I've done research, was just wondering if anyone knew of something that wasn't well known.
>>
>>68206595
Just answer the question. You do that and I'm gone.
>>68206628
So you admit there's no reason to buy vinyl that has anything to do with the music itself. Cool.
Everyone should take note.
>>
>>
>>68206663
hmm I need this too
if anyone knows a good store in the central CT area let me know
fantadingo lives around here too and he must be getting them from somewhere
>>
>>68206689
You just convinced me man. I just trashed over 5k dollars worth of vinyl from my collection, I'll be only going digital again from now on.
>>
>>68206689
>So you admit there's no reason to buy vinyl that has anything to do with the music itself. Cool.
pretty much
but you have no answers as well to what I've repeatedly asked
>>
>>68206663
>and trying to not give the autist (you)s.
Ok, that really hurt my feelings.
Just for that from now on every time I see a vinyl thread on /mu/ I'm gonna come in and shit all over it. We'll certainly meet again, I guarantee it.
>>68206752
>>68206757
We've now established that people who collect vinyl don't do it for the music, they do it for all sorts of other ulterior reasons. That's what's wrong with it.

>fashion statement
is any kind of collection of a physical object that isn't necessary for survival a fashion statement to you? Maybe people collect vinyl because they like having the music. Maybe they just like collecting. Do people collect stamps as a fashion statement? Rocks? Utensils?
>>
>>68206992
not sure who collects pocket watches as a fashion statement
basically what >>68207042 said
>>
>it's an anon fails to understand that vinyl collecting/listening nowadays is a niche hobby instead of being a primary mean of music listening episode
Yes there are people who simply buy them for "fashion statement" but they usually drop out of the vinyl game after less than a year.

But to answer your question, collecting vinyl is about something other than the music itself. If music was the priority then the format would be irrelevant because you'd be going for the free higher quality digital download if that was the primary concern. But the music isn't the primary concern, the concern is with something entirely different.
Now you've all admitted it and that was my whole point in the first place.
You're all probably too stupid to know it but when you're plunking down money for a vinyl record you're paying for something, and that something isn't music.
Let me say that again: THAT SOMETHING ISN'T MUSIC.
You and I both know what you're REALLY trying to buy, and I'm only here right now to rub your stupid dipshit hipster faces in it.
Come at me, you fucking fake ass faggots. I'll rid this thread to 404 with you.

it's literally one (one!) autist who gets off on baiting vinylfags, and successfully does so for like 100 posts

it's not even that, one severely autistic person is trying to rip on vinyl fags for insanely stupid reasons.
