Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall?

@grislybutter 

You're right Grisly.  A lot of millennials and younger are buying vinyl and labels are cutting records of material they like.  In fact some of them are buying more vinyl than I buy as I have most of what I want and I'm not much interested in the noise and bling that passes for popular music these days.  As for classical, how many versions of Beethoven's Fifth do you need?  I have about 7.

It is difficult to prove a negative.  Some here are saying young people don't buy vinyl.  Where is their evidence?

@skyscraper    Noting your remarks on longevity and acquiring record collections, many years ago I used to buy a lot of used classical records at a shop in London run by a guy who was around 25 years older than me.  He used to say 'I'll get your collection one day".  This amused me.  The shop hasn't been there around 10 years now, but I don't know if he is.
