Not enough

What are the high quality, economical, and clean alternatives to old style vinyl records? Hi-rez downloadable recordings. Eliminate physical media entirely, or as much as possible.

Let those of us who already own vinyl collections keep and enjoy them. For the people who don't already own vinyl, too bad. Fuggedaboudit, it's always tough titties for someone.

BTW, I never said that the world is ready to eliminate the use of PVC. PVC is bad stuff so looking for (and hopefully finding) alternative material is a good goal. I never said or implied that the world is ready to eliminate PVC just yet. I only call PVC "unsuitable" because it is not clean enough for the future in a world that presently creates too many toxic products. The goal is to find cleaner and better alternatives.

So I'm suggesting that reducing or controlling production of PVC products is better for the environment than not doing so. The fewer PVC products made, the better. I therefore pray that the "vinyl resurgence" will fail, or better yet will not happen at all. Every little bit helps. Makes sense to me.

Panties in a wad today?
