Ripping from Vinyl, Simplified
An anonymous reader writes "In a short article at linmagau.org
John Murray brings Gramofile to our attention, just the thing to help you bring all those LPs in the cupboard into your MP3 collection. One more example of the analog hole in action, I guess ;)" It may not be CEDAR, but it sounds like a lot of utility for a 76kB program.

Did I somehow miss something when I was growing up? Other than the occasional "Loose Plate", or "Little Platter" I've never seen any kind of LP in someone's cupboards.
(And I check... I'm weird like that.)
Not really hip on this whole LP scene, I guess. Can someone shed some light on this?

It will be easy to motivate our fellow man; there is hardly anything people treasure more than not being annihilated.
I don't want to sound picky, but I REALLY think we need a new name to replace "analog hole". Something about it just doesn't sound right.

Is that some kind of exploit people use when you bend over?
A real "breech" of security, eh?
Nothing quite like being caught with your pants down...
I got it... That's where the whole "Ripping" comes from... Although the "vinyl" thing might be a bit too kinky... not to mention sweaty...

Duh.. The other way around would be a much cooler hack, because it would be even more useless: software to convert an mp3 into a huge PNG of a well worn record, that plays just fine when fed back into this guys software.

I don't understand your concept of ripping directly to PC. All my music I rip using a kareoke machine, 10 friends and a microphone and Windows recorder. The quality just never comes out the same as the original.
Wow.Your idea is phenomenal!

what an article... since it may get slashdotted, here's the whole text as I saw it...

That's exactly right. And a new VHS tape will also look far far better than a DVD.
If tits were wings it'd be flying around.
Any good LP ripping utility is useful because turntables work really poorly in the car. I was cruising along at 4 MPH the other day and accidentally rolled over a pebble. Scratched my favorite copy of the Brandenburg Concerto #3!
