Since this is now in the Obsolete (selling) thread.

Hi Everybody,

The old thread about BitVinyl is now in an obsolete category.  I still think that using a fundamentally intangible digital currency to purchase a fully analog tangible musical disc is the perfect match!

I have a CSV with over 1000 different records for sale!

Email bitvinyl@gmail.com for a copy of the CSV.

Just to let everybody know, I have resumed sales of vinyl records.

Sweet Stability! 

For the next 24h I'm giving 15% off on all records under 1 BTC!

Post a 'best of' list on this forum and if I don't want them, maybe somebody else would!

Can monkeys surf the net… and corrupt our kids? Chimpanzee chat rooms, next on Sick, Sad World!

Is anybody wanting to buy records but is hesitant due to the massive upswing in BTC value?

I understand this is not an ideal situation for a BTC merchant, are there any suggestions on how to address this?

~S

All on a CSV spreadsheet that can easily be emailed!

Any requests?

I don't mine either.  Why mine when you can offer a service to the Bitcoin community?

Vinyl for bitcoins!

Talkin rock, I live in Chapel Hill, NC.  That link was odd...it should have worked straight to Raleigh, NC.  I've edited it so hopefully it works now.

That 25% discount is yours.

www.raleigh.craigslist.com/msg is surprisingly bountiful in terms of high quality musical instruments for sale.

Email if you see anything of interest and we can work something out.

They are, but how does 25% sound?  This is still a new service so anything that helps to build the network of trust is worth it to me!

In the age of mp3 collections over 50k it's great to have a collection of tangible music that you *really* love.

CDs are nothing but an antiquated form of digital music storage.  Vinyl offers something unique.  The sound is analog, not an approximation.  If you get a virgin record the sound is unparalleled (though this is debatable).  If you listen to it countless times it does start to wear out, but those pops and crackles are *your* pops crackles, unique to your record.  The records become old friends.

I see the future of music as having a purposeful divide between digital and analog.  Many new artists today are putting out vinyl versions of their albums.  I personally think a winning combination for a band is to offer mp3s for free, then charge for vinyl and lossless digital.  That way, people can hear the music, and if they fall in love with it they can own their own tangible copy. 

Plus, since records are much bigger than CDs the cover art has much more potential.  Large posters can be included without the need for 20+ creases.  The whole medium is much more conducive to a more enriching art experience.


Perhaps I should start offering turntables as well...


In other news, BitVinyl.com is up!  Right now there isn't much, but shortly you will be able to download a fresh CSV directly from the site!

There's still one more person that can post and receive 50% off their first record under 2.5 BTC!

The CSV has over 999 different records!

I intend to add more soon...

Dingus, shoot me an email (address is in the top post) and I'll get it to you post haste!

There are still 3 50% off discounts available on records under 3 BTC in the CSV list.

Reply by email or forum to grab it!
