Why have vinyl records become more expensive in general?

Just thought I ask because Half Price Books have been raising their prices of vinyl records over the last two years.

Because people are starting to realize that records rule and supply was not prepared to keep up for the future.

Are old vinyl records worth getting or is iTunes more convenient?

I have a Paul McCartney RAM album and I was thinking maybe I should get more. I just started to listen to the 70’s and 60’s songs like Beatles and Rolling Stones. They aren’t that expensive on ebay so I thought, "Why Not?". But I don’t know if its really that convenient but I do like the sound of it a lot. So thats the question Vinyl records or iTunes. If you can give an unbiased opinion on both. Thanks!

Vinyl as it will only gain in value for bands such as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
If you can get them cheap go for it! There is something very satisfying about owning a large vinyl record collection.

How much did vinyl records cost in the 70’s and 80’s when they were new?

I just collect a lot of vintage records and was wondering how much the average 12 inch vinyl cost back when they came out. Thanks!

9 or 10 bucks for a new release but you could find the occasional bargain.
