Why do hipsters love analog?
 
Hipsters seem to love analog only, like vinyl records, cassette tapes, 8-track, R2R and some vintage audio gear. Why is that? I'm referring to the younger generation that got into analog after the year 2000. Hipsters don't go for CDs, SACDs, DVD-A, Blu-Ray audio or Hi-Rez.

Did you just get pissy about nobody responding to your stupid thread for nine hours during which the majority of the western hemisphere was either asleep, about to go to sleep, or just waking up?

You'll do well here. Can't wait.

To answer your question...let people enjoy things.

Oh, and I get high school kids buying CDs all the time inmy shop. We sell them for $3-$4. They're driving around in their dads old 2002 Camry having a blast. It's what they can afford getting minimum wage in this sh*thole country.
