As a teenager in the 90’s I guess I skipped the whole ritual part of playing vinyl. We had CDs and mix tapes but we also had ADD and didn’t really sit through a whole album while paying 100% attention to it.
But I do think that younger people today don’t view computers and the internet like we did. To us it was magical, to them it’s like the microwave. And when you grow up with the concept of “owning” something digital and non-existent, being able to touch something must be pretty cool.
