 Mr> my records never poped crackled and my record player didnt hiss.
 Mr> maybe you guys should treat your records and record player better!

I simply don't believe that your records have never exhibited any hiss or pops.
No matter how well you treat records, the fact that there's a needle physically
sliding across the surface of the record will create a little bit of hiss
(which is the sound of the needle sliding on the record) and will create some
amount of pops and crackles after being played repeatedly over time due to
scraping the record.  It's unavoiadable that a vinyl record will degrade over
time - unless you use a player that uses a laser instead of a needle as in the
link I shared in my previous message.

Here's a video showing close-ups of record groove wear from a record being
played multiple times:

EVERY time I've ever played a record or listened to a recording of a record,
I've noticed hiss and pops.  Even if it's fairly minor, it bugs me a bit.
