Wow, the articles posted here were really interesting. I had no idea, because I've never owned a vinyl record (I was born in 1996).

This is cool and relevant, but not really practical right now: Amanda Ghasseai's 3D Printed Record

I would love to do a split as well.

It's not literally the vinyl, it's the format of pressed spirals being read by analog equipment that they enjoy.  For the most part, it's down to the warmth of the amplifier and the imperfections on the record. 

Using modern plastic won't change those audio characteristics.

I'd be interested to know if a lathe could be adapted to work with better material. Acetate and vinyl were the best they had in the 70s and 80s but we must have some form of plastic today that will hold together better.

Even if we have to use a press or mold process, surely one of the modern three-letter-acronym plastics fits the bill?

I found this project and remembered this thread! Assuming you or a maker near you has the required equipment, this could maybe be really really cheap to produce? The quality is shit, though.
