Oh, this is just plain silly. These days, vinyl is an elitist medium:
very few reasonably priced vinyl decks are available any more and runs
of 1000 or so copies can be mastered on CD.
Damn, I hate elitism, and this is one of its worst forms. The
attitude is: It's "our" music and we don't want the great masses to
pollute it.
Question: why is "underground" techno better?
