To be honest, being brought up in the CD age, I can't see the fuss about Vinyls. I know about the superior sound quality, but the hassle of it, having to flip it over after 5 songs, having to check the needle, getting the speed right, etc. compared to CD's or digital music- I just don't think the positives outweigh the negatives. I also don't think that there is much of a perceived difference between 320kbs mp3 and Vinyls, certainly not on less expensive hardware. Then theres the price, the size, the lack or portability. I just don't get it.
Not saying that music on those Vinyls are bad, I mainly have music since 2000 but there are some old albums that will always be iconic.

Because vinyl is analog and CD's are digital, but music itself is analog
