Using "literally" doesn't make your comment factual; it's one reason, but also I just think they're neat.
That is, they're more collectible than CDs in my opinion. Bigger packaging for better artwork, something physical and relatively sturdy, etc.
Vinyl? Sturdy? Please.
Maybe compared to the CD "jewel" cases.
Better than shellac I guess.
Jewel cases are fragile, but they’re largely standard and can be easily replaced if the crack or the dots in the middle snap off. It has no bearing on the artwork or the music itself.
