I think the things about vinyl that keep it here are,
1) the artwork
2) inserts! Sleeve art!
3) the process, getting the vinyl out, checking for scratches in the light, setting it on the player, getting the stylus/ needle at the ready, watching the auto action of the dropping of the licorice pizza and the magical way the arm moves to the edge of the album.
4) and believe it or not, the static and extra noise that you hear first, the white noise before it is replaced with stereophonic sound. Brilliant.
Note: Adidass , maybe your shrug could be replaced by a knowing nod if the right person had the record collection and the listening gear. Superior sound is good, don't get me wrong, I'm a Steely Dan man from way back. Sound counts, for alot. However you ever try scratching or dj mixing a c.d.?
