"The entire experience of vinyl helps to create its appeal. Vinyl appeals to multiple senses—sight, sound, and touch—versus digital/streaming services, which appeal to just one sense (while offering the delight of instant gratification). Records are a tactile and a visual and an auditory experience. You feel a record. You hold it in your hands. It's not just about the size of the cover art or the inclusion of accompanying booklets (not to mention the unique beauty of picture disks and colored vinyl). A record, by virtue of its size and weight, has gravitas, has heft, and the size communicates that it matters."
Although CDs have been around for more than 35 years, most of the music on vinyl that I enjoy has never been made available in a digital format and probably never will be.
Do you have highly esoteric tastes? I doubt you are referring to film music, where just about everything of value has been digitized.
Still waiting on those awesome Hans Salter albums that Tony Thomas released decades ago.
