that is so cool. have you noticed that you start to see turntables in ads on tv now, but not yet ads for turntables. saw one the other night, i don't remember the product, but i almost turned the volume back on. it was on one of fox's comedies aimed at a young, urban demographic. also on shows aimed at the same folks, on fringe, walter sometimes plays his tt, house has a sota tt that i only saw played once, but it has always been part of the set - wouldn't you love to buy that one when the show goes off the air this spring even just as a collectable. there was a short-lived show with shattner that featured a turntable on the set. resistence is futile.
when this sort of thing gets outside of the specialty mags, you know it's got some bite. i just hope it does not drive up the price of our beloved used records.
