I see your point and won't pretend there isn't an air of pretentiousness surrounding some who purchase records.

I think any hobby will have its fair share of smugness at the top.

Also comparing listening to records as consulting tarot cards is a bit extreme don't you think?

I was part of the smug audiophile brigade. Still bitter about buying those $700 headphones!
