Almost all (at least 95%) of my many thousands of LPs were purchased used in the "Long Play Great Depression" of 1995 to 2010... Dirt cheap perfect condition LPs..
Now I would buy, if buying... CDs. Since CDs are now the useless dirt cheap castoff of the current age of music.
Soon enough, (but most likely after I am dead and gone,) CDs also will suddenly become marvelous wonders again. Most likely when the Major Music controllers think they have a total LOCK on music playing and start the big squeeze on folks wallets to play music, any music at all.
At that point folks who still have media and not just vapor, (even vapor they think they own but alas, vanished like... well vapor....) will rejoice and thank their lucky stars.
Just my bet on the future.
