Joined: October 2008 Posts: 489 | I had at least a hundred LPs I've been carrying from place to place since I was a kid: Kingston Trio, Beatles, Stones, etc. A couple of years ago I looked at them all and thought,"Why am I carrying all this heavy stuff around? If I want to hear it, I'll get it from iTunes." Dumped all of it in the trash and didn't look back. | ||

Though it is more cumbersome to listen to an LP, CDs and Mp3 (M4p or whatever the latest Apple config is) can't hold a candle to vinyl on a good turntable with a stereo IMHO. | ||

My Mom said that she threw it out because the record was scratched! I told her that I just wanted the cover! When CD's came out, we lost Album Art. | ||

Joined: December 2003 Posts: 13984 Location: Upper Left USA | On or about 1976 I had picked up the Pink Floyd Album "Wish You Were Here" and sent the enclosed post card in to KZOK with my "Three in a row" selection: Wish You Were Here Fly Like an Eagle Stairway to Heaven It was selected and played... I really miss the Album Art but especially the liner notes. | ||

For recreational listing I use mp3 on the computer and for dedicated listening its vinyl. Last summer I went through and placed every single LP in new high grade rice paper inner sleeves and new resealable outer covers. | ||

Joined: October 2006 Posts: 5575 Location: big island | i like vinyl too, however, i recently invested a small amount of money and bought a DAK (BD-1600) turntable and conversion software. i did this to offer another service to my video transfer business. the investment is already paying off. shameless plug: if any of you folks would like to get your family/store bought films/slides digitized to DVD, pm or email me. currently, i can clean and transfer 8/Super8 (sound and silent), VHS, VHS-C, 8mm and Hi-8 and 35mm slides. i will offer 16mm service in the near future. i suggest getting any film that is 20 years and older digitized as soon as possible before they deteriorate and become unusable, especially if you live in a moist environment. | ||

Joined: August 2007 Posts: 1008 Location: Tuscany, Italy | I still have nearly 200 Lp. Few years ago I got rid of the albums I didn't like and left what I thought it was the core of my small collection. As many of you I started to put together Lp in my teen but did many mistake selling nice albums to rise money to purchase "new" albums. In doing this I missed many masterpiece. I still also have my old stereo perfetly working that I got back in 1977. Nice one. | ||

He "sold" them about a week after I left for Drugs!! :mad: I had NO idea he was like that. Every few months I think about those and wish I still had them. | ||
