Vinyl lovers...oh no!


Just posted.  Very sad.  I had no idea there were so few places that produce the lacquer?

I still believe someone can step in and develop (and patent) new technology to overcome this, mechanical engineer ideally. There will be a market for it and well paid I can say. It won't be easy, it will take some time and money but there are some rewards, if I win the lottery and get 30 mil or so I will certainly embark on a plane tomorrow. Maybe should do a brief market study 1st 😉


Thanks for that link
Certainly paints a grim picture for new records and the future of them.
I wonder just how long it will take before all the sellers of old used records jump up and start raising their prices for no better reason than they can and will exploit this situation!
