Vinyl Record Player MP3 I'm looking to start collecting albums, should I get CD's or Vinyl.?
There are a couple albums coming out soon that I want to get. They are gonna be released on both CD's on Vinyl. There are also a bunch of older Cd's I want to get either CD or Vinyl. What truly sounds better? I heard Vinyl is a pain in the ass, is that true? Id get a record player that hooks up to the computer so I can convert the album to mp3 form for the car?
Vinyl can sound (somewhat) better than CD's but you got to have the equipment to back it up, a cheapie USB turntable isn't it. In the pre-CD's era I spent thousands of dollars on my system to get it perfected. What I found is with the same system CD's kill vinyl!

How to Convert Vinyl Records into MP3's with GarageBand
Finding Rare and Vintage Vinyl Records
The classic way to listen to music is with vinyl. It is the old form of music playback that is a cherished item for the Baby Boomer generation in North America. However, since the advent of the cassette player, they have faded away and it has been decades since they were actually sold as part of new music packages.
So, for those who wish to go back to the days of Elvis, The Beatles and Led Zeppelin, what can they do? Well, thankfully just because cassette players, CDs and mp3 players have come along, it has not meant that all vinyl records have been destroyed. In fact, many still exist.
When you are looking for vinyl records, it does not have to be a hard chore, and you can actually find them in many different places around the city. One of the best places to look is the pawn shop. They are the dens of the antiques that no one wants any more, and you will be able to find some great vinyl records there that could prove useful to your collection.
Second hand shops are also great locations for vinyl records as people donate them when they get newer versions of music playback technologies. You may find a diamond in the rough, or simply a copy of the record your mom threw into the garbage in 1967.
That being said, do not expect to find Led Zeppelin IV, Tommy or Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band in the second hand store or pawn shops. Even average music listeners know those are valuable and will not give them up without a good price in return.
For the high end and collectable vinyl records you may be looking for, you will have to check out collector's shops, where you will find the records but not for a cheap price. You can probably expect to pay upwards of $50 to $200 for some records, instead of the one dollar per record you would pay in a pawn shop or second hand store.
Vinyl records have gone the way of the Do Do Bird, and no company makes them anymore. They are nothing more than collector items now for a variety of Baby Boomers and their children who want to grab a piece of history. They can be found in many different places in the city, including pawn shops and second hand stores. At those locations, you will find a variety of vinyl records, from the obscure to the well-known. Of course, for the more expensive and valuable types of records, you will have to go to collector shops, or even better, eBay, which will have every kind of record you could possibly imagine to put into your collection.
These days, there are more opportunities than ever to find the vinyl records you are looking for because they have been supplanted by new technology not once, but three times. In fact, two of the technologies that supplanted vinyl records, cassettes and CDs, are considered archaic these days. So, where are you going to find the vinyl records you are looking for?
