What is a "record"?

A record is a round disc made of vinyl that music is recorded onto and played from. It features grooves on its surface that store the audio, which can be read by a turntable's needle to produce sound. Records were widely used for playing music before digital formats became common and are still popular among collectors and music enthusiasts for their warm sound quality and nostalgic value.
