Why do hipsters prefer analog?

"I assume by hipsters he is referring to current younger generation, not real "hippies" from the 60s."

- Actually "hipsters" where coined in the early 1940's by exploring different music styles, mainly in jazz.

Next - why did the hipster cross the road?

Be happy they figured out there is something other than MP3 files on phones.  

and even if he was, what else are they supposed to listen to ?   something different?

Yes. Most people, hipsters aside, listen to some digital form of music. Mainly MP3s streamed from the internet or stored on a phone. The "hipsters" he is referring to, at least my interpretation, are the ones who think everything retro is cool.

Um, most listening to those formats, myself included, are old...so called hipsters just jumped on board cause its something new to them....I actively hunt down and buy vinyl, pre-recorded cassettes, 8 tracks, and even mini discs to this day. I find it wonderful and fun to play such things. I feel like I’m interacting with the media and the associated equipment. Yes, I do stream, but not all that often. However, what I do like about streaming is discovering or hearing some obscure music I’ve not heard. I then actively seek out a hard copy of it, in the above aforementioned media formats.
