Vinyl sales at 10 year high

[Cyprus Martin]

I've just seen a report on the BBC news website that states that vinyl sales are at a 10 year high, my wife thinks that I'm responsible for most of it!

You must have plenty of money Martin, I did buy vinyl until the price went stupid, now I download, shame,if the price of vinyl was lower I would buy again. BOB

Hi Bob, are there no charity shops in Kettering ?

[bob orbell]

Hi Philip, yes, that's no joke, there is about 15, plus 3 pound shops, the town is **** .

Well, if you have friends near Brooklyn they might be able to just get them at the supermarkt... Read this online this morning: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer...lls-vinyl.html

Problem is Bob -you can't sell a download if you get tired of it and if your hard disk becomes corrupted - you've lost everything.

And remind me how much a high res. download costs in the UK, here in Europe that is around €14 - I'll stick to vinyl and CD.

When a really good ADC becomes available and building a dedicated music PC never connected to the i/net then transposing my collection is something I will definately do.

Why does'nt WD design a top class ADC kit - now that is something of real interest to me.

Hi Stuart, I pay about £8.00 for a full album from i-tunes, thinking now of getting an i-pod and dock, probably should have done that ten years ago. BOB

Bob,
are you saying that I tunes is of the same quality as a true high res download or quality vinyl - that's news to me.

And me! I regularly buy Hi Res in the US for around £6, but here in the UK I stick to CDs added to my hard drive
