It's magical for me, buying an LP, opening it up at home, looking at it, putting it on the turntable, feeling amazed that the whole set-up actually works and makes music come out of the speakers.

What's wrong with me? How will I ever overcome this addiction?

I like finding neat shit inside the vinyl. I love when bands put crzy shit in the vinyl packaging. like godspeed you black emperor's first album. or the new deerhoof that has all sorts of cool prints in it.
I am right there with you man. buying vinyl feels like buying art. buying CD's feel like buying product.
