Just got one of those USB Turntable Converters for X-Mas and I'm questioning why....I wanted one for ages but as I was setting it up I noticed the sound quality was horrible. Now it may be the player itself, I'm thinking about exchanging it for a better one. Or just getting my money back....
But as I was sorting through my tub of old LPs and the tub of old 45s I was hard-pressed to find SOMETHING that I didn't already have on CD or that I couldn't download with a click on iTunes. So why have I been keeping these things for years now?
And to make matters worse I acquired a huge stash of 45s when my grandmother passed away in '01...bunch of Dean Martin, Englebert Humperdink, Tony Bennett, etc. that I initially kept for collectible/sentimental reasons but again I'm now questioning why. It's not really my style of music and if I was so inclined to listen to it I'd just get a greatest hits CD and be done with it.
There's not even any outlets around anymore to sell these things to and eBay is out of the question...I'm not friggin' around with that nonsense....
