Vinyls are better objects to handle: they are bigger, they have better artworks and usually richer booklet. To play vinyl is like a beautiful ritual, full of little gestures.

It's not about technology, of course, it's about fun. Like analog photography.

I wonder at some point if film cameras will outsell digital ones

if we mean stand alone cameras then I could see it happening at some point as phone cameras get better and better.

I don't think so. One of the big drivers of vinyl is the collectible aspect of it.
