Is the Vinyl Revival well and growing?

I never gave up on vinyl. October 1988, I bought my LP12. We were being told CDs were perfect sound forever. People were dumping their vinyl. Thankfully, I cleaned the best that I could find. Now, TTs at all price points are coming on the market. Is the the vinyl revival real and where will we end up?

Good point prof, I probably didn't give it much of a chance up until the last year or two.

My LRS is moving next Friday into a space that is 3X the size of their current space. They have a record store (vinyl only), a recording studio and a record label. They are doing very well and I wish them the best. They are GREAT guys and are very passionate about vinyl and recording/re-issuing quality ANALOG recordings. They are betting on the revival continuing and growing. I hope they are right......

digital for the most part has not made me want to sit and really listen.  There are exceptions, but normally no.  There is something about what vinyl and analog does that makes me want to listen.  Its sort of like an OLED tv and a Plasma.  I know that OLED is supposed to be far better, but when I come home and look at the way plasma looks I have no desire to move on in any hurry whatsoever.  

Analog just sounds right in so many ways, its hard to describe.
