gramophone records
Grooved audio platters
Gramophone records are vinyl discs that store audio as spiral grooves, played by a needle tracking the groove while the disc spins.
The term is largely British and old-fashioned; Americans typically say phonograph records or simply records.
Though obsolete as primary media, vinyl records persist among audiophiles and DJs who value their analog sound quality.
