What collective term is used for conventional records as opposed to CDs?

The collective term used for conventional records as opposed to CDs is "vinyl." Vinyl records are made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and they were the primary medium for recorded music from the 1940s until the 1980s. Vinyl records are still popular with DJs and some audiophiles because they offer a unique sound quality that is not achievable with CDs.
