Question for the older folks- did you ditch vinyl when cd arrived?

No.  In fact I took advantage of a few others disposing of collections to pick from theirs.  I ended up with about 3,000 but reduced that to 1,000 "favorites" when I moved a few years ago.

Yes I did, had a VPI, had lots of fun with it but got frustrated with dealing with Vinyl. Having to deal with flipping the album everytime. I can now same the same thing with CDs, happy we don’t have to deal with physical formats. Would still enjoy have a good turntable again for the occasional nostalgia of being able to compare sound quality with analog vs digital.  

Yes, because my two year old’s friend at the time trashed my cartridge, and given where I had to put my system in my living room I could see it happening again, so I shifted over to CDs and didn’t listen to vinyl again for over a decade.  I did keep all my albums however.

Yes.

No. I never got rid of my records. I'm still buying records, but mostly the so called audiophile $60 to $160 to replace some of the albums that scratched with time and use. 

I have plenty of music on CDs but my ears prefer vinyl for some reason.
