I Hate Records!

Ever since the invention of the CD there's been this little underground LP fanclub. A few weeks ago my Fiancee got a record player, and ever since then we've been listening to the same 3 records over and over again. It has made me realize how worthless the big black discs are.

- You can't pause them.
- You can't choose any track without screechy scratchy sounds.
- The sound quality is terrible. (I know what you're going to say, shut up! You are wrong.)
- Scratchy sounds after each side.
- They degrade over time.
- Not compatible with remote control.
- I can fit 10,000 songs on my iPod and take them with me anywhere I go.

It's 2008 people. Instead of spending $12 on a vintage vinyl, spend $7.99 on iTunes and enjoy your music with full, modern functionality.

Go Here Now

Apparently this blog (not "this" as in the one that I'm writing on currently, but "this" as in the one linked in the word "this") will not be up for very much longer. Jeff at the WVSR linked to it from his Suggestaholic blog a few days ago, but I wanted to put a link here, just in case you guys missed it. There is a shit-ton of great music there that you should download before it goes away. That is all.
