because I still do. Along with listening to listener-supported analog FM, CDs and DADs ripped to an external hard drive (with the discs still shelf-stored here for copyright compliance), and hi-rez downloads fed to three different systems here.
Regular use of an RCM minimizes clicks and pops, and I don't mind getting up every 15 or 20 minutes to turn over or change a black disc, as I can use whatever little "exercise" that involves. Though the runtime for ripped or downloaded program may involve longer get-up-and-down intervals, I do the same with them, leaving remote use strictly for video operations.
Having grown up with vinyl beginning in the mid-1950s, handling and maintenance are second-nature--I'm tempted to say "trivial"--tasks that I don't give a second thought to. And my waistline thanks me for it.
Does getting a download excite me as much as having a FedEx or UPS driver hand me a newly-acquired LP? Sure...if the end product "delivers" both performance-wise and sonically.
