Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall?


Interesting read here about the state of vinyl. Personally, I had no idea what the percentage of vinyl sales was “merchandise” never to be opened or played.

I just asked my 2 kids, 28 and 31 years old if they have any friends that listen to vinyl.  I'm laughing for real; so far my daughter told me that her friends buy albums as artwork.  I had no idea!  I've bought quite a few recent pressings and like the different color vinyl pressings these days .  I look at them and say to myself "that's pretty" and put 'em on my turntable.  I'm waiting for my son to respond.
