    sounds to me like the pricing scheme is designed to
    make mass home production prohibitively expensive.
    That way they can put something on the market that's
    not going to cut into anyone else's game. My guess
    would be that if it stays around, the pricing won't
    change dramatically because the market is relatively
    small (vinyl addicts) who won't have the power to
    drive the price down.

    Somebody get Ralph Nader on the phone!!!

    I'm really cuious about the quality too (what do they
    mean "special blend??"), but I guess the big advantage
    for pressing original material is that you control the
    eqing yourself.
