I feel like we need an open source DVD and CD so that they will survive of the long term. Streaming is nice but I don't want to pay monthly fees forever just to hear the music I like.
Vinyl is far from open source CD due to limitations of phisical format and the fact that good vinyl contains specifically mastered for vinyl with those limitations taken into account.
You can still easily buy Bluray player and open source your discs with ARM (not CPU/SoCs, different one)

I think at this point it’s called vinyl.

You mean, a jailbroken ps3? :)
Hard to find a good cassette player nowadays too.
