Vinyl, Once Thought Dead, Makes A Comeback In The Digital Age
In the last six years, vinyl sales have tripled. Manufacturers are now having a hard time keeping up with demand.
According to industry watchers, the renewed popularity of record players reflects a dissatisfaction with the diminished quality of free music.

Judge Colleen McMahon of United States District Court in Manhattan said the 1960s band the Turtles had rights to its recordings under New York State law.
This is brilliant!
Did you miss it? Here's the video that everyone's talking about: 'God Only Knows' by pretty much every single musician you’ve ever heard of.
Ah what a year it's been. No wonder we sell so much more classic rock titles than the new stuff! Do the new albums suck that bad?
2014 will mark the first year since its inception in 1976 that no artists album will be certified as Platinum from sales.
What do you think of this?

Preservationists are worried about troves of records stored on what was once considered a durable medium: the compact disc. Many discs can last for centuries — but most won't.
Definitely! Besides, you can read a record album and see the photos!
Sir Paul McCartney is set to win back the rights to The Beatles songs. Sir Paul was furious when his former friend Michael Jackson outbid him to buy the Associated Television Corporation (ATV)'s back catalogue, which includes The Beatles' tracks, in 1985.

Vinyl's Upward Surge Continues Because Vinyl Rules
Last week, Nielsen Soundscan released its mid-year report, and once again, album sales were in the gutter, down 14.9 percent from the year before....

On any given Tuesday in the 90s, I would hustle to the record store after school to gawk at the new releases. Occasionally, I would take a CD home, greedily tear it open, pop it into my boombox, and listen while I pretended to do my homework. This wonderful experience has no value any more. It's obs…

US Recording worked on a set for Marvel's Captain America Winter Soldier through Paramount Pictures coming out in April. When you see the movie you'll know what we did! Prior to this film we worked on a set for Men In Black 3 (look in the background in headquarters). Easy to spot that work too! Congratulations out there in LA...you did a lot of work on Winter Soldier and so far people love it!

We've re-vamped our shipping system to make it super easy to order. This took a lot of work. The default is now "economy shipping" with rates as low as $2.45 for the little stuff like splicing tape, all LPS ship for FREE when you select media mail shipping option, and free economy shipping kicks in automatically once you hit $99.00 (lower 48 states). You can still change the shipping method to UPS Ground or UPS 3 Day on your own dime. NO MORE CODES to worry about (and forget about entering.)
The US Recording Media website has been redesigned a bit to the "new" look for the "two thousand teens", and not the old, obsolete 2000's or especially the ancient 1990s. Gone is the Victorian black wallpaper design, the brown borders, etc. If there is anything in particular that you think can be improved to your liking, please let us know. This site has been in constant change for over 14 years now. THANK YOU~!
Don't forget to check out our offerings on Amazon and Ebay as well as our website! For instance, 1/4" x 82' rolls of RMGI splicing tape only $6.75 on Ebay and 1/2" rolls only $12.90!

If you want to buy some little items like a roll of splicing tape or leader, we have it also listed on Ebay and Amazon and you can save some money over ordering it from our website. A lot of our vinyl is on Ebay too. It's cheaper for shipping if you're combining a bunch of things together to get it together on the website.
It's back! Our splicing kit for 1/4" tape has returned with a vengeance! Available on Ebay and Amazon only. Only $59.00! Great gift and very high quality. The block, blades, and leader are the exact same ones used by the Library of Congress and the State Department.
Did you ever wonder what all was involved with making recording tape? Here's a drawing showing a typical magnetic tape coating line courtesy of EMTEC.
US Recording now offers shipping to Canada via the postal service and Priority Mail International. Whilst we're reluctant, it'll should be less expensive than paying UPS brokerage fees and your order should arrive sooner depending on, of course, the backlog at customs. FOR CANADIAN ORDERS, SELECT USPS PRIORITY MAIL INTERNATIONAL AS YOUR SHIPPING OPTION ON CHECKOUT.
We highly suggest checking the difference between UPS Standard and the USPS Priority Mail International rates understanding UPS MUST charge you for your taxes and their brokerage fee on top of what is shown. Apparently the postal service leaves it up to you to pay your taxes but we can't be sure of that.
In case you haven't read this article from Digital Music News, it's a good one about ITunes Radio and dealing with the crushingly compressed loudness wars. They put their foot down.
The ‘Loudness Wars’ in music are sort of like global warming. The problem keeps getting worse every year, but very few people have any real...
RMGI SM911 French made stuff is finally trickling into the USA. Prior to this, even if the BOX SAID "PYRAL produced in France" it was actually made in Holland and boxed in France. What we are shipping now is all "fresh from France" made tape from Avranches France. Today we got in SM911 1/4" x 1200' on 7" reels. Next week we were hoping to get 1/2" SM911 in but that has yet to be slit. FYI: Here's a photo of the Pyral factory.
US Recording Media goes through a lot of metal reel flanges in a year. This order went out to an archive recently to replace the flanges in a collection they recently acquired. Providing top quality products for archives, including the Library of Congress and other national archives, is our main business. From reels to Han D Mags, splicing tape to leader tape... they buy a lot of it.
We're not ones to really worry about things that are posted on various web forums but I want to address something: ANALOG TAPE COSTS. Some people think that selling tape is some kind of gold mine, but they are mistaken. We barely make any profit at all selling tape, even at the high prices that are out there, and the prices are not OUR doing, but the wholesale cost of tape keeps going up. Less people buy the tape due to the cost, and the raw materials costs keep skyrocketing because the manufacturers buy a lot less of it. Both RMGI and ATR increased their prices again this summer, and the pricing result is what's on our website.
By the time we pay to have the tape shipped to our warehouse, pay the credit card fees (which can hit 7% all told for certain commercial cards) and then ship it out for free with insurance, we barely break even. This doesn't even consider labor to do invoices, labor to pack boxes, etc.
So, no, we're not making a "killing" on tape. Some have said "Those prices are bullsh*t, we're not paying for new tape anymore." This is your choice, but if the manufacturers give up finally, don't be surprised.
US Recording's shipping rates for small orders are as low as $7.50 for USPS Priority mail. If you just need some splicing tape and a few other things, why pay for UPS? Everything is shipped insured and you'll get the package in 2-3 days anywhere in the USA. You can always compare the shipping rates on checkout between the various shipping methods. Free shipping is available for orders over $99 or $125.00 (West of Mississippi).
Here's a tape time chart, detailing *how long* a tape is good for at many various lengths and speeds. Just click the link on the page and print it out. We get asked this constantly: "My tape is 2500 feet how much record time do I get". This should help tremendously! http://usrecordingmedia.com/vehatatich.html
We've had to publish an ez instructions for our online order form for people who don't do very much on the internet. Does this make sense to you? We have some customers who don't even have internet and place orders at a library, etc. Thanks!- Brian
