My sister has vinyls for several of newer pop hits, she's a huge Melanie Martinez and Panic! at the Disco fan. We have plenty of records here at my house, but none I can name off the top of my head

I always wanted to have a vinyl collection but they don't sell vinyls where I live and they're too expensive to buy from another country so it'll always stay a fantasy.
I like some of "The vaccine" songs from back in 2010\2012.+Snow patrol,Oasis,U2

I'm lucky because I'm old, so I have a lot from when vinyl was the norm!

I have some nice rarities- like some signed stuff, limited editions, or original releases. Some stuff like test pressings as well.

I do buy some new stuff on vinyl too- I listen to a lot on my turntable, and if I want a digital version I can buy from somewhere like Amazon which will give you a digital download with your vinyl, or I can digitize it myself using software such as Audacity. I also like to collect high quality digital recordings.

My only problem with new releases is that no-one seems to know how to master music for vinyl any more, so some purchases I've made have sounded terrible. And the Loudness wars have added to the overall degradation of sound fidelity, too.

@frogz2007 You know CDs are only 16bit/ 44kHz, don't you? If you want better quality try to get 24bit/ 96kHz FLAC or other lossless formats, but of course make sure that's converted from good quality vinyl or original high quality digital, and not upsampled from CD or (shudder) MP3.

There aren't that many artists around that release music in anything better than CD any more, unfortunately. Even some new vinyl is digitally mastered in a lossy manner.
