9/10 for the listening to music one. It would be 10/10, but no iPod. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

10/10 as you DON'T own an I-pod.<br><br>Man I hate I-Pods. I actually had some kid on the bus ask me why I still use my CD player...I could have gone all music tech and explained the art of compression to him, but I just said that it sounded better (which they do) <!--emo&:wag:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ailwag.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tailwag.gif' /><!--endemo-->

But you can't listen to vynal whilst walking down the street.<br><br>Also, I have a set of decks, but I only use it for older stuff as it was recorded for vynal, wheras most of the stuff I listen to is recorded and mastered for CD.

[VisibilityMissing]

Skipping all depends on the equipment . . .<br><br>You could always go in for a turntable with a laser pickup . . . yes, there are such things: <a href='http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/Future ... 206&page=1' target='_blank'>http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/Future ... &page=1</a>

[Richard K Niner]

That will still skip. Remember, when you're walking, the vinyl won't just wobble on its vertical axis. How fast can the tracking lasers react to lateral movement?

[VisibilityMissing]

How do they do it in a CD player? Prescanning . . . that's the way an antiskip player works. Just because it's a phonograph doesn't mean it can't take advantage of current technology <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>But, perhaps the game should resume?

X/10 where X is equal to the score I would give whatever avatar you had up at the time.<br><br>X > or = 8.
