I have noticed a drop in prices on vinyl lately, and my local Oxfam music/movie shop have a much smaller vinyl section than they used to, the fad for records may be receding a bit for your average punter, imagine paying over the odds for a rare release and scratching the bugger by accident, also HMV have some big reductions on turntables at the mo (basic ones not really Hi-Fi but still...) to me CD is just so much easier to deal with that modern vinyl was always kinda a phase til people go back to downloads/streaming/CD for personal music.

(to answer the question, I would much prefer Arrow to put out CD rather than vinyl, I would pick up nicely packaged CD soundtracks long before buying a deck to play records, so no vinyl for me.)
