I respect your opinion on vinyl, and, although I listen to vinyl and enjoy
it, I also think it's large and bulky and a pain to move about, and
sometimes a pain to listen to.
But as soon as you put your opinion out into the public, you should be
prepared to be judged and defend that opinion. Otherwise, don't tell
people and you won't be judged. It's that whole "part of a society" thing
:) If you want to avoid such a thing, simply post facts and links backing
up those facts. As they're not your opinion, they won't be judged as such.
