Word origin

The term LP originally stood for Long Play, indicating the longer playing time compared to earlier formats like 78 RPM records. LPs revolutionized the music industry by allowing for more content on a single disc, leading to the popularization of full-length albums. Although digital formats have largely replaced LPs, vinyl records have seen a resurgence in popularity among audiophiles and collectors.
