New material on vinyl may be slow, Reissues from the likes of Speaker's Corner, Classic Records, Sundazed, Rhino are hotter than ever. Witness the proliferation of new phono stages, new turntable designs, and the many high-end phono carts on the market. Used vinyl costs more than ever in stores as demand outstrips supply. Mark Twain said it best: "News of my death has been greatly exaggerated"
We can argue until we are blue in the face over CD vs. vinyl. Both are right based on their own merits, both are wrong based on their faults. It's a personal choice for each user. Music and the means by which to reproduce it are plentiful and available at many different price points. Choose what you like, like what you choose. I listen to both formats, but prefer vinyl over CD. I invested more in my vinyl setup and opted for a cheaper digital rig that still gets the job done for me.
