Why do you listen to records?

Do you listen to records for the SQ, or do you just prefer to listen to music through this medium?  
I find myself putting records on occasionally, ( I have a large  collection) but I’m not sure if it’s because of their sound.  I certainly have the availability of millions of songs or compositions to listen to by streaming, and the sound quality is just abut the same, and, of course, the variety is endless.

So why listen to records?

@yoyoyaya “A rock in a (groove) trench”

l don’t really mind if l get a repeating track when something gets lodged. It makes it a longer side before having to get up to turn the record over.

Why…..
 

Stuck in the same groove?

Habit?

Bat for the other side?

Every recording has an optimal format. Depends on how it was recorded, how it was mic’d, for which medium it was mastered. Pick that one and enjoy.
