I agree with most posts here.

except for one thing. We don't know every persons situation.
For example

1) what if someone is an audiophile and listebns to LPs in his listening room but he also spends many hours a day in his vehicle where listen to LPs isn't an option so he wants digital copies for the car?

2) what if someone is not an audiophile but he has eclectic taste in music of a bygone era that is impossible to find on newer media so he wants to digitize his LPs just so that he can listen to his music.

don't get me wrong I get the frustration with the idiot that wants to be "cool" and so buys LPs just so that he can say they are LPs and then over compresses it and just listens to the digital copies but there can be many scenarios where that is not the case.
