There´s a new music format.

It’s hard to work out what it is exactly but it reads to me like a record that doesn’t wear. That still doesn’t have the dynamic range that digital has so I wonder what the advantage would be.

Doesn't look like anything new except that you substitute aluminum to copper and use it to play directly instead of pressing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_metal_mastering

However, as you said, apart from wearing less rapidly than vinyl disk, it does not change any other characteristics (limitations or perceived advantages) of vinyl.
