  • Cheers, I thought that might be the case. While I like the fact that vinyl records are regaining popularity, I'm only really interested in AAA ones, as just pressing digital files onto vinyl is pointless. It's a long way back before most people re-realise the value of good analogue recordings (not counting those who already have). That's not to mention low-quality or average analogue recordings, which of course would likewise come back.

  • I'm way way beyond that kind of reckoning. I have a lot of records, have done from teenage years, never stopped. I've been collecting a lot of AAA pressings. If you want to only buy AAA then look at Speakers Corner, really good value in Europe.

    I could talk all day about all analogue pressings but I'm not a devotee and don't believe there's no reason to own a digital file pressed onto vinyl.

    Watch Michael Fremers "All Analog records you should own" video and buy as many as you can. I have over half of them and he's picked a great bunch.

    I don't either--what I said, and believe, is that it's pointless to press a digital file onto an LP. There will still be artists I like who will do just that and I'll still buy their records, much as I buy things on CD. You just always wonder 'what if ... ?'
