A fad, IMHO.
Headlines can be deceiving.
“U.S. Vinyl Album Sales Up by 53% in Q1”
From an article you cited:
“Vinyl sales currently account for “only a small fraction of the overall industry revenues” at around 2%”
2% of a crippled business devastated by streaming.
968,000 units sold by the top ten artists in a 5-year period. That's 193,600 units a year.
Fad.
