being mainly a CD listener, i've yet to figure out exactly why so
many people listen to (and prefer) vinyl over CDs...to me, vinyl is
an inconvenience, especially since i like to take my music with me...
what i figure to be the main reason is so that turntable dj's can mix
them, but what about the home listener that doesn't do any mixing?
i am also familiar with traditionalist anti-CD sentiments (esp those
worded by negativland in their anti-CD essay), but am curious as to
know how many IDMers listen to vinyl as a matter of tradition as
opposed to practicality...
now, don't get me wrong, i'm not against vinyl...i own several
myself, but i just find that i listen to my CDs alot more than
vinyl...
