To me, vinyl is for intentional listening. I am making a conscious choice, I am actively listening to it, and I’m interacting with the media and displaying large form artwork while it plays. I also have access to Amazon’s music service in every room on whatever devices we have. I am working my way through RS’ to 500 albums with it. I am currently building a Grateful Dead Time Machine (https://www.spertilo.net/ https://www.spertilo.net/) to have that added to the music playing repertoire. I can listen to all of those as background music or even actively. But they’re different than vinyl for me and I don’t care about what others do or how they do it, but I ENJOY this in a way I never enjoyed music before while having the disposable income to do it. To each their own and all of that but for folks to deride those who listen to vinyl with a dismissive wave of their hand because they disagree with it and generalize their feelings for those who enjoy it is a bit much.
