Oh fuck it, you're right...what was I thinking? Anyone want to buy a couple thousand records cheap? Contact me privately. =) $1000? Umm..you can get a CDR for $300-the price of a decent cassette deck. Good quality turntables can be found used at very good prices as others have pointed out. Transferring to CD defeats the purpose? Of what? Being able to listen to a vinyl-only release on your portable or car CD player, or at work? Or being able to give a friend a copy of a great vinyl release that's impossible to find in *any* format? Sure there are lots of people that are happy with whatever they can find on CD and that's fine. Some of us are a little more adventerous though. Oh, don't bother flaming me as I'm not taking this seriously either......see the ----> =) Heh.
