The Vinyl? It’s Pricey. The Sound? Otherworldly.

Is Old Music Killing New Music?

Old songs now represent 70 percent of the U.S. music market. Even worse: The new-music market is actually shrinking.
The best-selling physical format in music is the vinyl LP, which is more than 70 years old. I’ve seen no signs that the record labels are investing in a newer, better alternative—because, here too, old is viewed as superior to new.

I don't know whether this has been mentioned in this thread before - or elsewhere on the forum - but for anyone who is interested in the technology of early electric direct-to-disc recording, I would strongly recommend you take a look at the BBC Arena documentary series "American Epic", from 2016.

The first 2 episodes cover the history of how record companies toured round the USA in the late 1920s, hunting down local talent and recording it using a "portable" (i.e. it weighed a ton and would fit into a truck!) disc mastering setup. The 3rd episode - my favourite - shows this same equipment (the only complete example still in existence, assembled by a passionate collector) being used to record many current artists. It's just plain fabulous. 8)

Here's episode 3 (with German subtitles):
