I've always been one of those that plays the record once, while

I'm too old to have done that. When I first started buying records, I
didn't have a tape recorder. And my record playing system was far
better than the tape recorders I could afford when I could finally add
one to my system. Today, I have no compelling reason to buy a
phonograph record.

Nor do I, but my local Tesco superstore has just started stocking a
(very) limited range of vinyl.

As most of what is there is classic rock titles, IÂ* would hope they've
not suffered any remastering other than making new stampers. I'll still
be listening to the CD versions, though.



Or one can make a digital recording of the LP, and have a CD version
that faithfully documents all the limitations and flaws that the
enthusiasts find to be supposedly 'superior to digital'.
