That's my response to
streaming web video.  All these
great technological advancements and people
are watching
video that looks like it did in the 1920s with John
Logie Baird.
USB turntables are mostly junk.  Bad turntable, bad
cartridge, bad preamp, bad
A/D converter.  Better to
buy a turntable at a garage sale, and get a new
cartridge from someplace like BSW.
