Contrary to McKinsey Quarterly's advocated trend of buying and selling as digital commerce leaps ahead, Amazon sales of vinyl records have been increasing since 2008. One can make the argument, though, that it's Amazon's bundling of digital downloads of mp3's with vinyl records that have muddied the trend.
Personally, I think diehard fans of vinyl will continue to buy vinyl. Amazon just added value to that classic offering against other retailers by including the free digital download. What do you think?
