Wired: Vinyl May Be Final Nail in CDs Coffin

December 8, 2007 – 6:31 pm

From the same Wired commentator who recently celebrated the slow death of music DRM, Eliot Van Buskirk now considers the impact of the vinyl resurgence on CDs.

The argument is almost certainly overstated, and he makes no good causal connection between the still-sparse (albeit growing) amount of vinyl and turntable sales, but I enjoyed reading about the rediscovery of vinyl.

In the interest of full disclosure, I may be a shade biased: I’m a former drum & bass DJ (still a hobbyist), and my household has three turntables and roughly 150 records.
