My brother bought me a record player. Naturally, as a futurist - I hated it.
Now, I love it. Here's why:
1. Hardware evolved. This is fully integrated with my home Sonos system (Gen 3)
2. Audio quality is indistinguishable from digital (better in some ways)
4. Exclusive content from artists...
May 6, 2025 10:535. Streaming Revenue (e.g., Spotify, Apple Music)
Artists typically earn $0.003–$0.005 per stream
Labels and distributors often take a cut before the artist gets paid.
Artists can make $5–$15 per record sold, especially if they self-produce or sell directly (e.g., at shows or via Bandcamp).
What a lovely gift from your brother! I'm glad you're won over by the record player – it's amazing how sometimes we underestimate the charm of old-school tech.
The sound quality and integration with your Sonos system sound impressive!
