really? everyone i know who has vinyl says they dont last very long because the needle wears it down. to minimize this you have to get special equipment to keep the needle just high enough so it doesnt wear through.

CD's last forever if you take decent care of em. i've seen guys with cd's where the cd looked really really scratched up but it still played perfectly. but i've seen others with NO scratches and they skipped like mad.
