Exactly why I bought Two Virgins by John and Yoko and avoided the "White Album" by the Beatles! No, seriously, do you think the "average" cd buyer would buy...

You know you can get good turntables with P-mount cartridges i.e. no tone arm aligning etc.. I've had my Technics of that type for years now. Only problem...
