  The Techno crowd (specifically the rave community) still uses vinyl a
lot, for reasons that seem to be mostly bullshit.  Pretty surprising
to me, since they mostly seem to be technical people and should, well,
"know better".

  Vinyl: Good Fucking Riddance.  A truly shitty technology that lived
FAR beyond its usefulness.
