Thats the power of vinyl records. Those who collect them, play them, and mix them understand why LPs will never totally be replaced by mp3s. Not that mp3s and modern technology arent great, though! The internet, for example, has provided a way for lovers of LPs to discuss, trade and buy LPs online. Collectors of vinyl records enjoy the experience of going into a record shop and hunting for rare findsflipping through them, holding them, giving them a listen before you purchase themit is all part of the experience. But collectors of vinyl also know that neighbourhood shops cant refresh their stock very often. Thats why vinyl record owners love the option of adding to their personal collection by purchasing LPs online.
