As an archivist I would disagree too, Bob. But are we talking about archives here? It says 'What is YOUR rarest' etc. A personal collection, not an archive.

I would certainly keep anything rare on either vinyl or plastic in an archive but, once it is archived, why should I treasure it? The song holds the memories. Not the album!

Not that I am saying people shouldn't enjoy collecting the vinyl. Just that I don't undestand it. Maybe I am just thick!
