    Note to the unwise - vinyl sales are on the up, they have been for 5 years. At least 50% of the major single releases each week are available on vinyl. 100% of dance oriented ones are. The vast majority of dance music (the biggest selling sector in europe) is ONLY available on vinyl.

    "Did you know that disco record sales were up 400% for the year ending 1976? If these trends continue... AAY!"

    And turntables regularly out-do guitars in the annual christmas gift surveys

    I don't care, I'm still going to replace my record collection with my own guitar playing.
