Gosh a museum :-)

In the days of CDs and DVDs do people still buy them?

I'm glad I didn't find it immediately, I enjoyed reading the rest of
your ramblings :-)

There's more, but you have to *REALLY* look hard.

Yes, people do still buy them, and even these days good vinyl pressings
still beat CDs to a frazzle. While I have a high-end CD player (Shan
Ling) and have tried others, good clean vinyl played on a decent
turntable with a good arm and pickup still has greater acoustic range
and richness.

once one is over 50 one's hearing can't tell the difference between a
wax cylinder recording, a cuckoo clock and a DVD.


Mind you, the arm and pickup I use costs the best part of one and a half
kilopounds, so it damn-well ought to!

Have a goggle at Diverse Vinyl, www.diverse-music.co.uk

I can't comment on DVDs as I haven't got a DVD player.

nor me! so I am not the last person in the world without one.
