Moral Dilemma
do I play my pristine Thunderbolt Pagoda records on my "not so pro" usb turntable, or do I keep them wrapped in plastic, in hopes that one day, they'll make me rich?
extraneous data: all of these songs are long-time ipod favorites. |
Recording collecting is wankery. Play the records.
|
if that's so, I'm up to my armpits in Kleenex.
but if it's wankery, shouldn't I be happy with the digital copy? have I mentioned that these are some of my favorite songs EVERrrrrr? |

of course. however, even a jaded cunt such as yourself must know, there IS something special about listening to songs on vinyl.
perhaps you don't. eitherway, thank you for your opinion and I suspect that you may be right. |
|
keep them fresh. you don't unwrap gum do you?
|
Re-seal.
|
^^^ they aren't "sealed" but they are in plastic. it's a large box that is more "art" than "record".

I think he's a prick. |

honestly? If it were me, I'd buy a second copy to play, if you love them that much. But, I'm often told I'm crazy for even buying hard copies of anything. So what do I know.
|
oh, I certainly don't deserve it.
nor do I want fingerprints on it after I sell it at Christie's for 6mil 元. |
I am seeking consultation with The Maker.
please find this post, yes. |
I just think you're already nerding it up by even having the dilema(not that there is anything wrong with that), so doubles is not that much further of a step. It just removes yr anxiety over the issue.
|
suppose that you had an oil painting that made music, but in order to do so, you had to drag a #2 pencil over it. THAT is my moral dilemma.
|
don't even try, it's completely different. You are looking at a print, not an original. :) buy another one, nerdcore.
|
I believe that you are underestimating this vinyl. it's not just another sleeved record. :o
|
:confused:

they are shit so just leave it. maybe make some money. |
fuck it, unless you think you can make over fifty million dollars i wouldn't even bother....just play them that's what they're for.
|
keep the records in their plastic while you play them. Best of both worlds. If the music is "that" good, it'll ring through!
|
I had heard that leaving the LPs in the shrink wrap was bad--leads to warping. Or do you have those clear jackets?

I'd play them.
Savage the clone. |
I would not play a prized album on a shit turntable.
However, I would play a regular album I liekd a lot on whatever played me thet goddamn music. |
what are those USB turntables like?
buy two copies, one to play and one to flog to rich saps in the future |
the turntable is pretty nice actually. especially considering how cheap it was.
please understand, that's my opinion and certainly not up to Savage Clone's fascist standards. |
he does have the johdpurs for it

i will posit that your tin ears (literally, as you're a robot) cannot get the difference between sweet vinyl or shitty ipod, therefore keep it wrapped in its plástico and worship it from afar like some holy totem. it's most important to keep your fingerprints off the plastic wrapper. wear gloves. then again i might remind you that shrinkwrap shrinks over time & deforms sleeves. you could buy a new poly sleeve and then worship appropriately for centuries to come. |

it's not wrapped. there's a plastic sleeve, black box, large folded black paper with notes and the record is in a white paper sleeve (acid free, I'm sure). I haven't touched the vinyl! and no more calls to "buy another"! although I would like to suggest that YOU do (you=buyanothers). |
