Is it okay to call CDs records?

Gastarbeiter 09/16/17 (Sat) 08:21:08 No.86338

I just call everything an "album"

Gastarbeiter 09/16/17 (Sat) 08:25:36 No.86339

I definitely call them "albums", but can I call them "records"? Does a record have to be vinyl to be considered a record?

Gastarbeiter 09/16/17 (Sat) 08:28:33 No.86341

You're all dumb, cassettes are the dominant format.

Gastarbeiter 09/16/17 (Sat) 08:30:42 No.86343

I thought it was 8-Track.

Gastarbeiter 09/16/17 (Sat) 08:32:36 No.86344

They are recordings of music, thus, they are records by definition. when referring to old phonograph records I either call them phonographs or just "vinyl"

Most older people in the industry refer to vinyls as LPs or EPs, CDs as CDs, and use record as a blanket term to describe the actual content within.

reminder that tape is superior medium of data storage

I'm not against vinyl, I just want everyone who uses the incorrect, non-existent word vinyls, to kill themselves.

Gastarbeiter 09/28/17 (Thu) 21:21:04 No.86672

What would you prefer instead? Vinii?

Just 'records' works best, if you want to be more specific: LP's or (12"/10"/7") EP's, (whichever format is relevant).

If you really want to specify that you're talking about a vinyl records, and are not referring to the content/release, then simply say it like that: vinyl records.

Maybe depending a bit on context, just 'vinyl' works too, and in some communities (mostly dance music) you might hear 'plates' or 'dubplates' (although dubplates are technically incorrect too when talking about vinyl, because they're pressed on acetate instead).

If you're old and senile, you can say gramophone record or phonograph record, too.

The plural of vinyl is still vinyl. Kinda like how multiple sheep is not sheeps.

Gastarbeiter 10/01/17 (Sun) 00:08:28 No.86729

and plural of beer is still beer

Gastarbeiter 10/01/17 (Sun) 07:00:19 No.86735

what? no it isn't. just a few days ago I was told to "ey pick me up a few beers bro"

Gastarbeiter 10/01/17 (Sun) 17:15:35 No.86752

>incorrectly using the non-existent word beers

Gastarbeiter 10/14/17 (Sat) 19:27:08 No.87210

i know it should be "two cans of beer" but when you dont define the vessel for the beer you just say two beers

Gastarbeiter 10/15/17 (Sun) 19:26:38 No.87231

Vinyl is superior tbh.

Gastarbeiter 10/15/17 (Sun) 19:45:20 No.87232

Nigga there's music recorded on both, why wouldn't it be okay?

Gastarbeiter 10/15/17 (Sun) 21:29:43 No.87236

Records are a recording of info/data so yes.
