>So you don't understand why people like something and dismiss it as silly hipster bias?
Yeah, it can seem annoying when someone does that to what you like, but all humans do this at some level. Its same thing as when someone insists that a $7,000 bottle of wine makes you sit down and have a personal experience with the wine, makes you appreciate the weight of the wine, its powerful robust swirling texture, and its assertive character. cue: eye-rolls
>Does everything have to be about efficiency and logical superiority?
No, but I bet you don't consult tarot cards before choosing your next job.
>People enjoy the experience more and are spending money on it. How horrible.
Agreed, leave people alone, people !!
- skciva 9y agoI see your point and won't pretend there isn't an air of pretentiousness surrounding some who purchase records. I think any hobby will have its fair share of smugness at the top. Also comparing listening to records as consulting tarot cards is a bit extreme don't you think?

Still bitter about buying those $700 headphones! >Also comparing listening to records as consulting tarot cards is a bit extreme don't you think? Hehe, yeah maybe a tad bit :)
