I just saw this and thought it was interesting. Wonder how good the quality and where and how much and quality of the blanks?

My question is "why would you?"  I'm going to wager 99.999% of the time, the source will be digital.  Perhaps if you are doing your own recording, it "might"make a bit of sense, but the 10" size is very limiting.

I see it as the final frontier of recording your own music. Technology has done it with tape, CD-DVD, and now vinyl.  I think the idea is great but doubtful I would ever buy one.  I don't use much vinyl now......grin

People that enjoy vinyl are, usually, enamored by the non-linearities introduced by the mechanical effects of dragging a cantilever through plastic; that effect occurs irrespective of the source material.

Interface it with a microphone and cut your own LP’s while you jam with friends. Love that plastic dragging cantilever? it’s fun.
