Why do hipsters prefer analog?


Hipsters started with vinyl records, then cassettes, then 8-tracks, then R2R.  Where will they stop?

Um, most listening to those formats, myself included, are old...so called hipsters just jumped on board cause its something new to them....I actively hunt down and buy vinyl, pre-recorded cassettes, 8 tracks, and even mini discs to this day. I find it wonderful and fun to play such things. I feel like I’m interacting with the media and the associated equipment. Yes, I do stream, but not all that often. However, what I do like about streaming is discovering or hearing some obscure music I’ve not heard. I then actively seek out a hard copy of it, in the above aforementioned media formats.
