Subject: RE: Digital turntable for vinyl records
Let's see original cost around £10,000 written off over say four years, that's £2,500 a year. Presumably recording has to be done in real time (or does it?) so at three sides an hour, eight hours a day, five days a week that's 60 LPs a week, or 3000 a year. So you'd have to charge around a pound an LP, not taking into account labour charges and interest on the original investment.
Assuming you could get round the copyright laws, and the punters were willing to pay say £5 an LP for material they already owned, it sounds like a nice little business.
