There’s no track skip

You can skip tracks on vinyl. Not at the press of a button, but if there's a track you know you don't like, and maybe it's extra long, you can absolutely set the needle down at a different point. It's literally what old school DJs did and do.

Well, I know, but don't tell my ADHD brain that! This has forced me to listen to some tracks I wouldn't have otherwise and made me appreciate the art of album composition. Even if I don't particularly enjoy one of them, it still still combines with the others to become more than their sum.

Oh, also, there are turntables that allow you to skip tracks at the press of the button. But that ruins half the fun of vinyl for me.
