   I seem to recall some device that used a laser to read LPs and store the info so that you wouldn't degrade your records by playing them... But I doubt you're really serious....

   um.. doesn't reading your analog record into digital defeat the purpose of having it analog in the first place (one of the big reasons that audiophiles hate the digital revolution)?
   

   
   life is analog.

   Rome already makes one of these. I bet they're pissed as hell!

   The Rome device was the first link of my post... But I'm not sure theirs has the tape player mechanisms that allow you to use it like a tape.

   Well, I think those kind of audiophiles are nuts. Digital should defeat the purpose of having analog.... Unless you like random white noise with your music. And you can always add that later with DSP.
   
   
   And life actually isn't analog. Quantum mechanics says so!
