Do you have a source? I am having trouble believing this.

I found a source: http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-38221420

I think there are likely fewer sales on vinyl records than digital but the higher cost is making up for it.

Damn, I should reinvest some of the money I got into something new. Green, what do you think will make the next big return on the hipster scene? Parachute pants? Boomboxes?

Original or color? If you say GBA I'll disregard your opinion. Thanks.

Yes you should. New is cool and girls like guys who are cool. Vinyl used to be old and was uncool but now it's new again and so is cool. This morning we bought the new album by Larry Lockett and the Liberals (called 'Every Opinion Is Equally Valid') on 180 gram vinyl.

Yes I know, but if I bring out GBA games, I cut off the GB and GBC players... but if I bring GBC games, I cover everyone.

Looks like I didn't need you for the follow up question, GBC cartridges it is. Gotta find now programmers and manufacturers. Thanks.

I bought decades-old sealed records on eBay because the content isn't released otherwise. I never paid for a fuckin sound file download ever because they aren't even real. But I also never bought a new vinyl release because fuck off, release it on CD you stupid company. CD got invented, remember? You don't have to make those fuckin vinyls anymore.

I thought that was just downloads, not including streaming from Spotify Amazon etc
