When the Beatles were recording their first album, it is safe to say that they did not imagine the world that we live in today. Vinyl is considered somewhat of a novelty for the mainstream public, especially in a world where music is played constantly and is considered something to fill empty space while multitasking, not something to be thoroughly enjoyed.

Today, music is heavily compressed. While technology has progressed greatly since the golden age of vinyl, we have sacrificed music quality for convenience. Very low and high tones are easily lost or are purposefully pared down in order to get a particular song to fit onto the average iPod or in Windows Media Player. This is not how the songs were written, how the artist preformed it, or how the song was meant to be heard. Much of the musical integrity that the artist put into the song is lost, which makes vinyl a much better choice for those who wish to really enjoy the music they love.

Many bands and artists today that are conscious of the quality of their music are going back to selling vinyl, which is slowly but surely bringing this fantastic medium back into the mainstream.Related Article : Invisible Music vs. The Physical Artefact
