i agree, but seems we're in the minority. i made a thread about the subject a while ago and noone seems to care.

in digital terms i'm not. but i love vinyl, digging in charity shops is one of my favourite activities. i used to find all the cool bits i could with a view of using them for samples but recently i've realised i just enjoy the fact that i'm rescuing all these wax chunks of history.

exactly what i do. the phonograph technology will be about 150 years old soon. cassettes, 8tracks, dat's, vhs, betamax, 2,6,12,24 track tape.....all died within a couple decades. don't mess with success.

charity shops are getting wise though, mate saw them have record valuers in to some places we frequent. all about going to the most in-the-sticks place you can find. i was in bexhill a while ago, that was pretty good for digging.

one of the funniest things was once taking my handytrax into a charity shop and the two women behind the counter looking over and saying "ooooooo isn't that fancy" and "ooooo look its got a little speaker on it and everything" :lol:

Sorry I'm not as perfect as you, Seckle.

Wasn't kidding, but I meant that I hate everything digital that's not wav, aiff, or flac. Sure, mp3s sound alright, but I'd much rather have aiffs.
