Well, I like my "retro" furniture because it looks like it's from the fucking future.
Old things become valuable because things get ruined over time. If you have something that has stayed nice, it is irreplaceable and hence accrues value.
I like "retro" design because the aesthetic that was in vogue in "modern" circles in the middle of the 20th century looks the best to me. That's it.
I don't think anyone who replied to this thread likes old things simply because they are old. That's just stupid. Just because it's old doesn't make it cool by default. To suggest that anyone here was talking in that way is way off base to my way of reading this thread.
And LPs really do sound better than CDs.
