Just a note, as a vinyl audiophile, on why audiophiles continue to buy vinyl since the article barely speaks to it.
Vinyl records are a pain in the posterior to maintain. But with a good turntable and high-end audio setup the resolution, immersion, and palpability of music from a record still can't be matched even by loseless digital formats played through the best DACs. I wait for the best digital gear to sound as good or better than my turntable setup. Ain't happened yet but digital continues to improve and is getting close.
