vinyl = heavier more flexible with molded over label.

styrene = light, brittle, tinny sounding, cracks easily, stick on label

Also - never cue up a styrene record because it will inevitably dig up, best just guess where it starts!

not all styrene 45s are poo mind, I've got severally which are visually battered-to-buggery but play excellent
