Huh, I think Woot had this a while ago, same price. Maybe I'll have to get one for my parents...

#1 Woot had this a week ago for the same price

Does the digitization process get rid of all the crackles and pops or will it still sound like a vinyl record playing?

there are tools available to clean up the digitized tracks.

my god not yet another damn format! what next, maybe magnetizing rust on strips of plastic?

Christ some people are stupid. You get a higher quality sound from vinyl than you do from cd's. It is a fact. Do some research.

I like CD quality...

Didn't Woot have this a while ago (or a week ago) for the same price?

#8 read before you post

i will trade my ipod for this

Coming soon to gather dust in a closet near you...

Thanks #9, wish I had thought of that... Oh wait, I DID... see how I combined #1 and #2's observations into 1 post? That's called humor...you may have to look it up.

Wish I knew a friend who had one. I just need to use it for one day to convert all my LPs and then I'd never use it again.

This item is all about convenience but not sound quality. If you prefer quality sound-- pass it.

It's fine for sound quality. It's not a direct drive turntable for 3x the price, but it does the job and it's pretty easy. It might be the extra little push you needed to finally digitize your vinyl, instead of just thinking about doing it eventually, maybe, someday.
