I collect vinyl. I won't bore everyone with all the romantic details, but I have found one very interesting effect to my listening: having to physically put the album on the turntable, and flip it over, has made me far more attentive to the music.
When I was a teenager listening to CDs on the bus I'd really sink myself into an album, and listen to it dozens or even hundreds of times. Now I'm back in that mode, it's not just passive consumption anymore.
