I made a Discogs account because Discogs has a marketplace and I wanted to get alerts on if a rare CD went on sale like you would a YouTube subscription.
I tried to add a YouTube clip to one of those obscure record's pages that I just happened to find and instead of a straightforward place to copypaste a YouTub link Discogs uses this weird shit where they search for every YouTub link manually and the search doesn't even work (I only half understand it and fully dislike it).

I bought a CD off discocks once. It didn't have the cut of the song I wanted and on top that this 'nearly new' condition CD was scratched.
Too much effort to send it back and, for what it cost, just wasn't worth it

I think the newest autism is vinyl records of Current Year albums for the morons dedicated collectors. Generates a fair bit of drama and additional deadlines because the worldwide production capacity for this shit is pretty limited.

That has been going on for a long while.
The actually newest hipster hype is cassettes. LPs can sound very good and that's just not "ironic" enough.

We already have the technology to make Blu-ray Audio discs with amazing sound fidelity and multi-channel Audio. But people would rather spend money on outdated 20th century formats for some reason.

I would personally theorize that the reason vinyls have made such a huge comeback is because it gives something to show off to everyone else. They have this fancy "Collector's" feel to them that you can put in a frame and hang them up on you wall. CD/DVD cases don't give you that sort of 'bragging rights' to show off to others.
(but again, all of this is my assumption)
