Another oddity of the #VinylRevival. Does this mean that #WHSmith will lead the #AnalogRenaissance and bring back #MusicBiz tabloids as well? #AskingForAFriend.

One of the last bastions of the #AnalogRenaissance. Still widely in use today as I discovered when I recently purchased #School shoes for my Granddaughter while we were up in #Wales. No doubt the #DigitalGrifters have it in their sights. #Clarks Shoes for Kids! @morganrees

I am a big fan of the #VinylRevival and the #AnalogRenaissance, except for the fact that most #vinyl purchases are being made by #collectors. This re-issue box set of the #Beatles from 1964 is an exception. Everyone should buy it. #SixtyYearsAfter.

A poor example of the #AnalogRenaissance. #Germany. The German problem? It’s an analogue country in a digital world https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/sep/01/germany-economy-problem-analogue-industries?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
The German problem? It’s an analogue country in a digital world

Germany was once an economic model to emulate but its reliance on industries past their sell-by date is costing it dear

Hmmmmn, #Philips loyalty aside, the ‘re-birth of the cassette’ is due to collectors and not a reflection of #Swifties embracing the #AnalogRenaissance. Only a true analog-file would love the sound of this horrible format, no matter what is recorded in it. @morganrees
