Future of Analog Technology Media

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has any insights on what new analog technologies we might eventually see in regards to analog music media. Don’t get me wrong you would have to pry records from my cold dead hands at this point, but could there be something superior to vinyl records for capturing music in the analog format? If so, I have not heard of them, but this topic interests me greatly.

Yes ... it's called tape and it's undergoing quite a revival don't you know! New R2R machines and new tape issues abouding

However the cost of entry is quite considerable 😏

As to anything genuinely new don't hold your breath!

 HD Vinyl looks interesting and you can play it on your current analog setup

Yeah, was thinking of something brand spanking new... can't remember where I read it, but there's some type of theoretical hologram that might do a good job of storing music in analog format, but someone might have been trolling, who knows.
