You gotta watch the video:
Record-Rama Sound Archives :: The World's Largest Collection of Sound Recordings Vinyl Records, LP's, 45's, 78's and Rare Albums
though I CRINGED every time I saw the straight tone arm PLAYING A RECORD with the wrong/straight headshell with the stylus at such an obviously wrong angle. And then he rants about music through computers and hypercompression (and confuses volume/dynamic range compression with the data compression of lossy encoding, but I see that a lot).

Wish I had a few more extra bucks. There's a building for sale across from my office. Would 25,000 square feet be big enough to hold all them records?
