Plot summary
The vinyl record renaissance over the past decade has brought new fans to a classic format and transformed our idea of a record collector: younger, both male and female, multicultural. This same revival has made buying music more expensive, benefited established bands over independent artists and muddled the question of whether vinyl actually sounds better than other formats. Vinyl Nation digs into the crates of the record resurgence in search of truths set in deep wax: Has the return of vinyl made music fandom more inclusive or divided? What does vinyl say about our past here in the present? How has the second life of vinyl changed how we hear music and how we listen to each other?

Woke record collecting. Self-described "passionate Weirdos" talk about how they like to collect records. I grew up collecting records and still do, and I was bored. Not much new information. Pretty generic. A lot of hipsters telling boring stories, that go nowhere. Some interesting stuff about the current guys making records. They don't get into what records they actually shop for or what are great records in their collections. More it's really an ad for Record Day. And then somehow, they take something as trivial as record collecting and make it about race and gender.
