What gets me about new vinyl outselling CD is - who is actually willing to pay as much as quadruple the price of a CD for a new record? Of course collectors will pay big money for a collectable record but when I see the latest, I dunno, Taylor Swift album with a price higher than a rare Beatles I saw for sale, it strikes me as weird. I haven't bought a single Record Store Day release because they're too expensive. So while part of me is chuckling at seeing vinyl overtake CDs again, part of me is wondering how that could be possible unless they're playing games (i.e. someone buying a $50 vinyl release instead of people buying $15.99 CD).
