Switched back to vinyl for my music, my 20 year old Texhnics 1210 will probably out last my current laptop and the next!
"Record wear can be reduced to virtual insignificance, however, by the use of a high-quality, correctly adjusted turntable and tonearm, a high-compliance magnetic cartridge with a high-end stylus in good condition, and careful record handling, with non-abrasive removal of dust before playing and other cleaning if necessary."
In other words, record wear is negligible if you buy good equipment and take good care of it. Just like the risk of bit rot, catastrophic crashes etc. is negligible if you buy good storage equipment and take good care of your data (good backups etc.)
Perhaps the one big advantage of vinyl over digital is that the shelf life of unused vinyl is larger than a human lifetime. A disk stored on a shelf, however, can suffer damage in many ways and is guaranteed to be very hard to connect to your computer in ten-twenty years.
