I've got a USB turntable I screw around with and three shelves worth of inherited vinyl. I enjoy the nostalgia of it. I feel a lot more warmth from the album art and the physical act of dropping the needle. It's a lot more personal than just downloading some bits.

That said, I'm disgusted by a $50 copy of The Wall at Urban Outfitters. Fuck you guys.

The last new vinyl I bought was a Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots because it's her favorite band and she wanted to get it signed. Anything else is money I don't have.
