We all know analog is better than vinyl on a cheap setup, but with my iTTUSB turntable and a Denon DCD-1500 CD player, which one should I concentrate on, in turns of buying new albums? Also, are there any decent turntables that are suitable for an audio freshman like me with an extremely limited budget?

Well well well! They see the light of day!

This part irks me:

"Q- What is the point of having hidden tracks and easter eggs?

A- Part of the "vision" in creating the Archives series is to encourage interaction and exploration. Including some Hidden Track and Easter Eggs fits in with that vision and leaves some fun surprises for those who venture forth and poke around. "

If I pay my money, pay me the respect of not having to search for the effing music.

Dr. Kunchur's papers seem to have been buried under the weight of childish arguing in the other thread, so I will start a new one here.

FYI the original papers are Here

Ok, I'm afraid it's getting time to ask.

Where is a good place, these days, to buy either a new stylus (For V15 Type 4) or a new cartridge. I've got one stylus held back, but that's it.

Sad to hear of the Airbus crash this week. Maybe a moment of silence to them and their loved ones.

Take care.

I'm sure this has been answered a million times here, but I can't find it.

I would like to rip all my CDs onto my hard drive and sell the old CDs (to buy more vinyl, of course). I hope to purchase a Squeezebox to link my digital music to my receiver.

What it the best format or iTunes settings to preserve this music, since I won't have the CDs any longer? I dont think drive space will be an issue; I should be able to use an large external hard drive, correct? I don't really care about the portability issues in terms of a ipod type player.
