Is it questionable to buy new popular music on LP?


With the new release's being mixed like crap does it still make sense at all to purchase Vinyl for the only slightly better sound considering all that has to be done to take care of it?, add to that the long play benefit of CD's its harder and harder for me to purchase new rock on LP. My latest dispointment was "Gomez, How we operate" as I love the album but it has no benefit over the cd I also have this across the board from RadioHead to most any new album, anyone else feel this way?
It all boils down to the mix, if its crap why bother with higher priced, lower convenient Vinyl.......and I hate that I feel this way more and more.

As a big fan of the local college radio station here in Rochester NY I bought The Format Dog Problems from the band's web site. I remember K-Tel making better sounding records! It actually sounds better on my car radio!
Springsteen has a long, long history of format-independent rotten recordings. It's too bad. I want to rock out, I slap on The River and boogie for two and a half tracks before I can't stand it any more. If you want to hear him at his best I guess you have to go to a show.
