The World Is Getting Older Vinyl

Also apologies to mr.

The world is getting older vinyl.

An example of an autographed record. By 2050 80 of all older people will live in low and middle income countries. By 2050 there will be almost this many 120 million living in china alone and 434 million people in this age group worldwide. The pace of population ageing around the world is also increasing dramatically.

This is a video showing some colored vinyl albums made before the resurgence of vinyl when it was much more rare to press lp s on anything but black. The world population is aging more quickly than ever before and governments are facing unexpected challenges as they try to meet the social and healthcare needs of this unique population. I don t usually like the sound of digitally processed vinyl it can sound sterile. New vinyl that is 180g or 200g audiophile is usually quieter than old lps were when they were new.

And at an oldies record store in my area i saw some going for hundreds of dollars. Vinyl records new or old retain a lot of value and so long as your copy is in decent condition and there s some demand for the title you can often make a profit if you choose to sell. I can even hear it in 80 s and 90 s vinyl. This is a case where age can affect vinyl records value as the older an album is the harder it is to find a copy that has never been opened or played.

As people get older they have periods of greater and lesser well being. That said quality control is not what it could be what you get can be luck of the draw. Sealed copies of older albums by the beatles might sell for as much as ten times the price of an opened example for instance. Today 125 million people are aged 80 years or older.

But its not always the case. While many albums aren t worth much especially if they aren t in great condition many are worth quite a bit.
