Re: Fire may impact worldwide vinyl record supply
Are master recordings not stored in a fire proof vault?

Re: Fire may impact worldwide vinyl record supply
The reality is they're treated like a commodity and not the irreplaceable art that it is. Then you have labels like Sony intentionally destroying masters to save a few bucks in storage by backing them up in digital.

Re: Fire may impact worldwide vinyl record supply
I don’t play vinyl and the thought of that makes me sick.
How can companies not see the valuable commodity they have.Synology 1019D+ - SGC Sonictransporter I9 w Roon/HQ Player- UltraRendu- PBD Stream IF to Playback Designs MPS5 via fiber optic - ARC 40th Anniversary Pre - ARC 610 T's - Martin Logan CLX's - 4 Martin Logan Depth i Subs - Shunyata Hydra, DIY PCOCC interconnects, speaker cables and power cords with Furutech terminations.

Re: Fire may impact worldwide vinyl record supply
I agree but, soggy vinyl from water is better than not.
I would bet there are options for more than 4 to 5 hours. Assuming they really want to protect them.Synology 1019D+ - SGC Sonictransporter I9 w Roon/HQ Player- UltraRendu- PBD Stream IF to Playback Designs MPS5 via fiber optic - ARC 40th Anniversary Pre - ARC 610 T's - Martin Logan CLX's - 4 Martin Logan Depth i Subs - Shunyata Hydra, DIY PCOCC interconnects, speaker cables and power cords with Furutech terminations.

Re: Fire may impact worldwide vinyl record supply
Mike Fremer spent a few minutes at the Florida Expo commenting on this fire and it’s impact to the vinyl industry. Of course, extremely concerning since the only other provider is not able to scale up to meet demand. And, environmental laws would make it very difficult to open another plant - at least in California.
