Vinyl

April 28th, 2008 | by matt |

I like to buy vinyl records, and I’m sure I’m not alone (the vinyl purchaser for Criminal Records says sales are way up), but I hate digitizing them. I have to:

1) Find the cables to hook the turntable up to my laptop.
2) Wait for the entire length of the album while it records into Audacity.
3) Chop the recording up into individual tracks
4) Compress the tracks down to mp3

I shouldn’t have to do all that when the record company already has the files in mp3 format.

Every new record you buy should come with a link to download the mp3s for free.
