A vinyl record, or phonograph record, refers to an analog sound storage device that consists of a disc manufactured using polyvinyl chloride plastic. The discs can have a metal, resin, cardboard or glass core, and the modulated sound information is inscribed in the surface materials in grooves. The disc is incised on both sides with a single concentric spiral groove, in which a sapphire or diamond needle or stylus is run. Traditionally, these records were used as the primary medium for commercial music production; however, they are now gaining immense traction among the new-generation artists as well.
The market is primarily being driven by rapid urbanization, along with the adoption of omnichannel retailing practices by vendors to increase their consumer base. Music collectors, audiophiles and disc jockeys (DJs) consider vinyl records as a prized possession and are increasingly using them for concerts, shows and music recordings. Furthermore, these records also represent a significant part of pop music history and heritage, which is increasing their demand significantly in the contemporary music scenario. Popular music labels are organizing events to release and offering deluxe or limited-edition albums to promote vinyl records. Additionally, product manufacturers are integrating various technological advancements in the records to enhance disc capacity, maintain high-definition (HD) audio quality and minimize the overall costs of production. Other factors, such as aggressive promotional activities by celebrities and music personalities, along with increasing expenditure capacities of consumers, are projected to drive the market further.
