This is a laughable comparison, since vinyl is selling like fucking hotcakes in recent years.

Literally in response to everything going digital lol
Exactly 💯 I fucking love vinyl.
not only that but good vinyl holds value. its actually considered an investment
Which also is laughable as vinyl is worse audio quality, and an environmental mess, both from a transport view (its very heavy) to a meterials view (lots of pvc and often lead) and energy view (steaming the platters is the only way, and the raw materials).
But people buy it up, because of course they do.
Not defending streaming, I stream my own never used Spotify (although I love Soma FM), but there must be a better way.
Which have just made a large comeback lol
Vinyl forever :)
Which are very popular and highly sought after among certain people, but not liked by execs because they allow you to own a material copy of something so you don't have to rent it perpetually?
They sell vinyl records at Walmart.
watch the GTA6 soundtrack get released on vinyl lmao https://www.discogs.com/release/6367579-Various-The-Music-Of-Grand-Theft-Auto-V-Original-Music-Score-And-Soundtrack
Of course they would feel this way. Without disc they can keep that 100 dollar price tag forever if they choose.
I mostly bought these games at a discount when people turn them in at Game Stop or Vintage Stock. That will be no doing this with any of their games going forward.
I can’t wait to purchase this from the V38 store.
