Would you believe that good ol’ vinyl records could attract the interest of young people today, in this world of iPods and mp3 downloads? No? Well, then I suggest you check out this article about Belva and Chris from Charleston, West Virginia, USA:

This part is especially interesting:

When Samuel Lowe opened Sullivan’s Records on Washington Street East last spring, he expected to make half his money on CDs and half on records.

Now, vinyl records make up about 90 percent of his business.

It seems like there is hope for the vinyl record after all. But we knew that all along, didn’t we?
