Recording LP's from RZ50

Seriously, I have no life.
Unless you are planning to sell your LPs I see no point in recording them. I don't do that and find playing LPs the best way to enjoy them. I played a three disc set the other day, that I have had for years. All 6 sides played without a single tick or click, and you would have thought you were listening to a very high quality CD or stream. Also I suspect the LP will be more durable and longer lasting then any digital copy. I am finding increasing numbers of my oldest CDs are becoming unplayable. All of my LPs that are nearly all older than my oldest CDs play just fine.

I would say recording LPs is a huge waste of time and effort.
I think the problem with CDs is that Aluminum is such a reactive metal and after it starts, there's not much chance it will stop. It would have been great if they could have done some kind of accelerated testing before releasing these on the world and wasting the money of the people whose CDs can no longer be played.

No, that was my fault for living in the past and thinking about analog recording. I edited my original post, so it references recording with a computer.
Pretty sure he was referring to my saying I was taping the McCartney LP.

I counted all of the LP's I've recorded so far. 150 so far. Double albums are counted as one. Quite a few more than what I thought. I have around 500 albums and I don't buy a heck of a lot now so the collection won't grow too much bigger.
