Vinal: Useless/dated and or not very handy?

Reasons I like vinyl:

-Finding side "C" is always difficult and fun.
-I like to me able to needle drop wherever I want.
-The inital crackly silent part before the first track
literally makes me jizz in anticipation.
-You can hear the fuzzy crackle over quiet parts of songs.
-There are physical grooves in the record being rubbed by a
stylus
-Some vinyl feels different, different weighs.
-45s CANNOT be fucked with. Theyre fun.
-Easier to move around the record than forward and backward
seek buttons.
-Old vinyl smells like old treasured books.
-The packing is made of paper and is BIG.
-You can put the covers on your wall like posters.
-You can shut off the turntable and it slooooows to a halt.
-You generally have more control over the playback.
-If a CD is scratched and skips, its gameover. New cd is
required. If vinyl skips, you can somewhat repair it, or
just give it a push over the scratched part.
-Vinyl fits in milk crates.
-Its easier to have a broader range of musical tastes with
vinyl, since you can buy old records on the cheap and thus
be exposed to more artists.

AND
Some vinyl is colored, and or has pictures on it. My friend
has Kill Em All by metallica on vinyl. Although metallica
blows, its a picture disc and looks absolutely incredible.

Almost forgot!

-The labels are usually unique for each side, which looks
beautiful.
