Anyone Collect or Still Listen to Vinyl?

[Retrodude]

Went to a couple of thrift stores today looking for a stereo I could hook my record player into since the one I've got now is on it's last legs. Didn't find one, but I did snag a couple of random jazz records and the soundtrack to Pinocchio (I'm a nut for old school Disney and always pick up records of theirs when I come across one). Also, I see on Amazon that they're offering the Man Of Steel soundtrack on vinyl. I'm tempted to get it, but if I did, I'd have to download mp3s somewhere to make a cd since I'm not able to convert my LPs as yet.

Eh, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure that when that soundtrack comes out that Amazon will have their "AutoRip" mp3s ready for it.

What's autorip?

Edit: Nevermind, I looked it up. It seems like a handy service, but nowhere in the fine print does it say whether you can burn the mp3s to a cd or not. Can you?

[GSZX1337]

You should be able to since Amazon's mp3s are DRM-free. They'll be VBR, but that should do until you can rip the LP yourself.

TIME FOR SOME METAL VINYL

Oh nice, always looking for more distros to add to my bookmarks. This place seems to have a good selection. too. I take it you've ordered from there before?

Yup (just CDs and cassettes tho - not vinyl).

Its a pretty straightforward thing- oldschool metal styles, doom metal, melodeath, and black metal seem to be pretty much the only things you can get on vinyl.

In general, when I find metal on vinyl, that's the majority I find, besides on specialty stores. Occasionally I find stuff that isn't, but when I find death metal, grindcore and the like on something besides CD, its usually on tape.
