RE: Vinyl, because the "old school" style still matters (more than you might think).

Thank you very much for your article.
I have been involved with vinyl records for many years, and I have been running businesses related to the sale and production of vinyl records for almost 20 years. When I returned to collecting vinyl records in 2007, although I had not bought them before but inherited them from my sisters, the global vinyl market has only been growing ever since. At the same time, streaming has become even more powerful, and as we all know, this has not benefited anyone except Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify, who has just invested $600 million in an AI arms company. But that's beside the point.
First and foremost, I am glad that vinyl records are doing well in Brazil and that people living there appreciate their value! That's great. We recently looked for opportunities to bring our vinyl production to the Brazilian market, but we didn't find any good contacts :) If you have any, I would be grateful :)
But that's just a side note.
What struck me most was your thesis that vinyl has a cleaner sound than CDs. In fact, the opposite is true, because CDs don't have surface noise, while vinyl does, and when it comes to sound clarity, CDs outperform vinyl in this respect. However, the human ear does not like this 100% purity; for humans, this level of sound purity is simply unnatural. This minimal noise must be present for us to feel comfortable with the sound. I will soon write an article about the sound of vinyl and CDs, which I am sure you will enjoy :)
Best regards
