And from the same site as the previous post. No need to respond as I am busy by myself getting my daily fix (today it's Bruno Walter - Bruckner's 5th). I define middle-age as 40-72 (next year it goes up to 73).

I think that description is true of anyone who has serious hobbies. They enjoy their time alone.

I think the link at the end of the article is more interesting (and worrying) than the article itself.

The linked piece claims that the current phase of "hipster" popularity of vinyl is overloading the surviving production facilities, with the result that quality is not only lower than we would like, but unsustainable too.

Nothing interesting here. Just more navel gazing.

Probably best to move on to something more worthwhile.

We're just extremely annoyed by others.

That I think is true. Hobbies are mostly not for gregarious people anyway. Are book readers 'lonely and introverted'?

just asking ;-)....the article seems to be a bit schizophrenic depending on which side of the pond you are?

I don't hate people I just feel better when they are not around.
