I'm not sure about this and whether it's illegal or not, but, people can do a LP transfer to CD. If this can be done to the final 4 albums, it's easier than changing sides, and lifting needles ect.
Has anyone done this or thought of doing it?
Is it illegal if no profits are involved?
As near as I can tell if you make the copy from your own vinyl you shouls be OK - on the other hand I'm not a lawyer...... I'd like to be able to skip around and play a cut twice - that sort of thing.
