It is not all about the technology. Someone comes over to your home, they don't get to browser your CV flac collection, and talk about it. Log into Spotify and presented with a world of choice, it's harder to choose. Go to your collection, flick through the records discover favourites you haven't listened to in ages. putting a record on is a ritual, demanding attention, flicking through files is just for diverting attention. The best tech doesn't mean the best product.

As an aside, thank you for reminding of how terrible the Spotify library design is.

You should be able to have a similar experience with your digital collection. I wish I could flick through covers in my library rather than browse a grid.

Even the buying of vinyl is an experience. Going to a store dedicating time to purchase something like 12 tracks, while flipping through tens of not hundreds of large items with artwork ranging from Beautiful to meh to thought provoking.
