Yeah, I really don't get the nostalgia, but maybe it's because I lived much of my life in the vinyl and then cassette tape eras. There are so many downsides to both. Vinyl records take up a lot of space and they degrade just a little bit every time you play them unless you have a very expensive laser player and even then...). Cassettes also degrade quite quickly and the sound was never that great with cassettes. Of the two, though, vinyl nostalgia is a bit more understandable because you can watch the record rotate and the theory of operation is quite simple.
