I'm wondering if I should buy the vinyl or not, but what's the point if it's digitally sourced anyway? Then it's just easy to scratch and a pain in the ass to flip 9 times to listen to the whole show. And they hardly ever hook you up with the MP3 these days.

Avoid today's vinyl releases at all cost. The packaging is shoddy, and the actual record itself bears little if any resemblance to the sturdy LPs from the sixties and seventies. In fact, they fail to measure up to the audio quality of the era when Kelloggs and Post printed 45s on the back of cereal boxes.
No, it's a fact. I recently purchased Miles Davis' Kind of Blue along with John Coltrane's A Love Supreme (both on 180 gram virgin vinyl) and they sound awful. The albums are so thin I'm afraid to leave them out at room temperature, and the album sleeves are barely even glued together. I was utterly disappointed, and will not be making that mistake again.
I'll wait until Neil Young unleashes his new PONO sound system on the buying public next year. LINK
