Of course LPs have made a major comeback, because they still do have a deeper richer sound than most CDs. And the e-book data is very questionable.
I think the only reason LPs have made a come-back is not because of superior sound - it’s because the kiddies are all wannbe ‘rap’ stars and the only way they can do that is spinning the LP back and forth under the needle.
If the LP were truly making a come-back for audiophile reasons, there would be a resurgence in Technics and Nakamichi turn-tables and Crown ruby needles. You would see Pre-Amps making a resurgence with dbx and autocorrelation noise reduction circuitry becoming standard fare. I think you can see in the marketplace that this is not the case.
It’s all about the talent and skillz of spinning vinyl under a cheap saphire, vertically mounted, conical needle that sounds oh-so cool and gets the chickies hot and bothered. Add some gangsta pants halfway down your backside and some platinum Grillz and you are there.
But, what is questionable about the e-book data? Seriously, or the 1’s and 0’s non-standard size?
