There's actually a very recent DJ-oriented turntable with digital outputs.

Oh, wait...a turntable that uses a laser to _read_ the record?

Dan: what sort of "laser turntables" were you describing in resp:71?

Okay. I've seen ones that look to be laser-balanced. There's a pattern
printed on the rim of the turntable, and a laser which reads that pattern and
adjusts the speed and tilt of the turntable accordingly.

Never seen those. Sorry I wasn't more detailed in my original response.
The appeal of a turntable which uses a laser in place of the phono
stylus is that record wear is no longer a worry.

I'd be really impressed if it played 78's.
hmm..then again I see no reason it shouldn't if it can automatically adjust
the speed...
