in my case my vinyl collection is 'old' so there is quite a lot of AAA there (to use a modern day acronym) Many albums are available in digital, but I did not buy too many of those. Of the few I bought there are some with bad transfer to digital so I'd like to be able to play the vinyl. I do not subscribe to Tidal (or Qobuz) so I do not have access to the large libraries of digital transfers. And most of that is only redbook anyway.
I get it. That's a solid reason to buy one of these so clearly there is a market. The alternative for you would be digitising all your albums via the Devialet USB port. That's a big job though.
I have a few vinyl 'rips' that I did a couple of years ago. These sound very good indeed. Let us say I rip 150 albums. It would take some time to do it even if I use an excellent program like Vinyl Studio (https://www.alpinesoft.co.uk/). Then I upgrade my vinyl rig. New player, arm and cartridge. The new kit sounds much better than the old so I should re-rip the 150 albums...
Better to play and stream vinyl live..
