Vinyl records were massively entrenched and are still in the picture now,
unlike other technolgies which have come & gone, or are on their way out.
Can any other technology boast of being playable still in 100 years?

Writing/printing on paper?
Oil paintings?
Photography?


You're missing the more important one to this conversation: scores. I have
had a 400+ year old score in my hand, it was just as readable as ever.
