Phonograph records, collectively (5)

I believe the answer is:

vinyl

(Other definitions for vinyl that I've seen before include "Flexible plastic for flooring (or old records?)" , "A plastic (LPs)" , "Synthetic resin" , "LP-making material" , "Shiny, tough and flexible material used for floor coverings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
