Why do hipsters prefer analog?


Hipsters started with vinyl records, then cassettes, then 8-tracks, then R2R.  Where will they stop?

I was initially concerned about local Hipsters (mainly from the Los Feliz area) gobbling up all the good vinyl, but it turns out that they only listen to The Dave Mathews Band.

However, I just tried to purchase an ugly/plaid light weight cotton short sleeved button front/pocket shirt on Amazon and they were all sold out .

HIPSTERS!!!

Just put your hair up in a man bun, buy some skinny jeans, and carry on...

Beyond audio format, I feel like vintage Marantz receivers have been on the hipsters radar for a while as well - maybe 2-3 years?
