Transferring vinyl is a major drag on the economy?
This is going to be one of my shortest blogs ever. Today, in the Wall street Journal, in the review section, on page C-11 there is an article called “Lack of Sleep costs Billions. How about Cats?” The article list the top ten things that put a drag on the economy. Number 4 on the list is “transferring vinyl to manageable mp 3 formats.” The author claims that this activity in costing the economy about $11.7 billion per year! I assume it is calculating the time it takes as well as it’s impact on the sale of music in other formats. She lays the blame squarely on the “Baby-boomers” She mocks us for taking our classic rock so “seriously”. If it is a crime, then let me be guilty… As a matter of fact, I plan to do some vinyl transferring today!
