Enough reasons for me to buy as much albums on vinyl > as possible. A friend switched to CDs only and he e.g. can't get "The Cry Of Love" from Jimi Hendrix on CD, since production has stopped. He easily could get the same old vinyl I've got. I experienced, that e.g. the "I against I" and "Rock for Light" from the Bad Brains do sound much better on the original records, than on CDs I heard.
