I don't know how many records you have, but IMHO, many of the old records 
that came on vinyl should stay on vinyl. Many have been re mastered and 
cleaned up and reissued on CD's.

However, records are awesome.... there is so much stuff you can't get on 
CD's. A lot of underground stuff. I'm into the electronic/grooves/house 
scene. Records are simply awesome.

Sorry to burst your bubble but many of the unsigned bands are going digital 
because its way cheaper than having their stuff stamped on vinyl.  The 
Electronic Music scene, which was born in my home town of Detroit, MI BTW is 
moving into the all digital realm now....most of it was already there.  
Stamping comerical CDs is cheap now, and CD-Rs are really cheap to make 
yourself.  The new tools like ModPlug Tracker, programs like Cool Edit 2000, 
and other drum machine programs out there make it very easy for somebody with 
some music talent to make up their own tunes, write them to CD, and sell them 
on their own website or at music conventions and festivals.  If you watch 
AudioFile on TechTV you'll discover all sorts of stuff being used in the 
underground music scene.  For one thing, many of the standalone synth 
machines used by electronic bands have been turned into programs that emulate 
the devices and do the same job.  You can literally have a recording studio 
on a single PC!!!!!  I LOVE Electronica, and especially .MOD format stuff.
