Apparently Sony found out they just don't make 'em like they used to and whipped up a belt-driven USB turntable: the PS-LX300USB. It'll export your 33s and 45s through Sound Forge Audio Studio (bundled) and has its own pre-amp, but Sony, you're living in the past, man. It'll go for $150 next month -- just sell off a Northern soul single or two to cover costs.
