Records sound better, not to mention CDs also have something called CD rot that even though you take perfect care of it can still occur, records dont. I prefer the sweet sound of vinyl to the cold sound of digital any day, not to mention album art 12x12 is a lot better, or if you get In Bocca Al Lupo by Murder by Death you get a dual LP that folds out to be 7 foot long. Its definitely not a fashion statement by any means to have records.

Looking forward to tax time, probably going to buy me either a nice Technics turntable, or possibly a Rega P1
