^This. To me, listening to music on a turntable is an experience. It's all about putting the LP on, adjusting bass/treble/loudness/etc. and then relaxing on the couch (positioned at the sweet spot between the speakers) and reading through liner notes and lyrics that I have read many times before. It's why I know obscure things like Fran Sheehan played bass on the first Boston album or that Geezer Butler's first name is actually Terry (or I suppose "Terrence"...).
