Do yourself a favor and get a turntable. I have had more people come over to my house talking about how horrible vinyl is and how superior cd is and leave telling me how wrong they were. I have numerous copies on both cd and vinyl which I play as demonstrations. Also, it is a misconception that you will have noise and popping while you play your records. Yes, some lp's will have some noise, but most play brilliantly. Most people who knock vinyl don't have a system and base their knowledge on their old turntables. Having said all that, modern music recorded digitally doesn't sound very good on vinyl and I still continue to purchase newer music on cd.
