    On that topic, I still say only the original Edison wax cylinders had true audio fidelity. Vinyl is just a cheap knockoff, trading convenience for quality.

    I predict Kodak and Fuji will be out of the film business by the end of the decade.

    The end of the decade is about 1 day, 7 hours, and 25 minutes from now.
