Why You Should Collect CD's In A World Focused On Vinyl

[@ZéAntónioMerckx]

This is good keep going hugo!

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Thank you!

Hugo, I see you cover more than just music and collecting values, but here's my $.02 : As a 72 year old guy, I have records from way back. Obscure stuff. Now I digitize music from wherever and listen in my car from a thumbdrive, or live at concerts. 😊 My sources are usually the bands selling their vinyl merch. &/or their cds, or else I go to the library! Ripping music to my hard disks (30 terabytes) is fine since my ears are getting bad. My system will play records, cds, cassettes, or reel-to-reel, as good as I can reasonably afford. 😅 I enjoy everything except paying huge record companys for sound that doesn't get shared with the artists. 😢 My max. price is about $30-40 TO THE ARTIST. After that, there's the internet and all those FREE librarys. 😂❤ .... good content! Please keep it up. 😊

[@Hugosmediacollection]

I love that you digitize the music, making a database of everything. I also wish i could just pay the artist the money directly! That's why when i buy a vinyl i try to get it from their own website as well, but sometimes the shipping alone is the price of another vinyl. Thanks for the compliment!

Genesis- Invisible Touch - A Masterpiece both Vinyl and CD!

[@Hugosmediacollection]

One of my favorite bands of all time! Invisible touch is also up there with favorite albums.. still want to own that one on vinyl as wel

[@godot996]

I do both. I do CDs mainly for stuff that's either not available or too expensive on vinyl

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Same here, love both tbh, i tend to get the vinyl when it's an absolute favorite of mine! Otherwise i'll stick to the cds

[@TomGreene15]

Not even 1000 subscribers is crazy, I was expecting you to be way more popular

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Thank you! Means a lot! It's a slow climb..

[@TomGreene15]

@Hugosmediacollection It sure is. Nice video! Got a U2 album on CD for $1, got the same album on vinyl for $20

[@Later2u]

I like vinyl, but if the record I want is too expensive, I'll pick it up on CD. Still have my first Technics SL-D202 turntable (1980) and my first CD player which is also Technics (1986).

[@McMieke]

I bought the new Jon Anderson record for $NZ50. It was a double album. The new David Gilmour album was $NZ70. That same album on coloured vinyl was $NZ99. That was a single disc album. I don’t understand how they can cost these out. We are getting ripped off.

[@Hugosmediacollection]

It seems that everytime i look at prices the 'basic' price went up, first 25€, then 30, then 35, now it seems 40 is the standard. Still LOVE vinyl but they are just exploiting the hype

[@McMieke]

I couldn’t agree more.

[@mikespins5894]

Great group of records and CD's The Police greatest hits good stuff, I mainly talk rock vinyl on my channel and post a few concert clips, thanks for sharing the great music info I am a Packer fan too,, Peace!

[@Hugosmediacollection]

I love the police! I will check your channel out :) Go Packers!

[@wesleydraves1281]

I enjoy cds but I still prefer vinyl. I’m also getting it for the cover art

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Fair point, if i could affort it, i would get more vinyl than i do now, but i can not justify the price difference to get most of my music on vinyl...

[@mondoenterprises6710]

You might want to save for a small system with a decent turntable and needle so you don't damage your records with a suitcase player. Try to make friends with an audio person, they will set you up for cheap with a good system.

[@Hugosmediacollection]

It wasn't a suitcase player, it was a JAM stream+ player... Not the worst thing in the world, but not great. I JUST bought the AudioTecnica 120! Set it up and the sound difference is insane. Where the other player would skip some records, sounded perfect now, so im glad i got it!

[@andrewbrazier9664]

Agree cd music lover here. Just purchased as as new cd the vinyl would have been £29.99. Paid £2.50 inc postage plastic holder scuffed but cd mint 🇬🇧

[@Hugosmediacollection]

The difference is so insane to me, especially used cd's..

[@EmilyReadsBooks]

I feel like Woody is staring into my soul

[@EmilyReadsBooks]

But also, amazing video as always ❤️

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Huh.. i dont remember putting him there... Weird

[@randomwilly]

Now we wait for the yearly pakjesavondhaul video

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Might already be recorded...

[@Lil_G_in_da_house]

I collect both personally as you have a point cd is cheaper and stuff like that but vinyl has a more characteristic sound and feel and the look could be a lot better and it’s nice to have something big of what you love so while I respect what you say people like me just want to keep they’re expensive hobby

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Trust me i totally get it... While i was editing this video - and i kid you not - the doorbell rang and it was a vinyl being delivered 😅 so i definitely still collect vinyl as well, it's more that i try and bring a bit more attentionbto cd's as well :)

[@vagabond197979]

I almost stopped the video when you said you were a big fan of Coldplay. 😂

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Thanks for not stopping it 😅 what's your favorite band? I'll also add that i do admit they fell off after mylo xyloto, although i still like head full of dreams and a handful of songs of the later albums. But Rush of Blood to the head is my favorite album

[@Emessdub]

@HugosmediacollectionRush of Blood is the last good Coldplay record before they full sold out and turned into a poppy boy band.

[@vagabond197979]

@Hugosmediacollection Not sure I could ever name a favorite but I love Queen, AC/DC, Scorpions, etc.! You really hit on a lot of the reasons I've switched to buying CDs almost exclusively.

[@geecrypto]

The resurgence of vinyl is just a marketing money grab, CDs so much cheaper now and sound so much better anyone saying that vinyl sounds better is just trying to justify buying vinyl to themselves 😂

[@teckertime]

100% agree!

[@Hugosmediacollection]

Yeah i literally can not hear a difference, if anything vinyl have scratches more often that will affect the sound in a bad way, so it's a silly point people make imo

[@mondoenterprises6710]

Now you're cookin with gas.
