Recent data from the RIM shows that vinyl LPs outsold CDs in the USA for the first time in decades. Might this suggest the possible hastening of the latter format's demise? I am not so sure. For a format which some will argue is moribund at best, there's still an awful lot of activity on that front. And you can be sure it's not Gen-Xers and Millennial who are buying the newest CDs, for they are the demographic that, along with those born more recently, migrated seamlessly to streaming, or, more likely, never used physical formats for their listening pleasure.
