Back in the 80's I thought these would be collectors items some day.

No, not even a little bit. At one time I must have had a thousand miles of magnetic tape. Dumped that garbage just as soon as digital came along.

Vinyl albums seem to be enduring somehow though.

Haven’t they started making record players again? I had every single Disney movie on VHS donated them to a school because they still had a VHS player.

Probably. I know you can still order needles, arms, other replacement parts from Japan or wherever, on ebay or craigs sometimes

I don't get it. I dumped my albums and tapes without ever looking back about 2 seconds after they came out on CD and dumped those about 2 seconds after I got them on MP3. I have no nostalgia for record skips and tapes with the guts ripped out.

Albums have better sound than CDs if properly taken care of and you have a decent turntable. VHS version of The eagles Hell freezes over reunion tour concert had superior sound to the the CD, though does not today. I dumped all my remaining VHS about a year and a half ago, including the Eagle video.
