But my point is that I *do* have my own originals. It just
doesn't make sense to go through the time and effort to make
copies when I can get them from Spotify.
Should the day arrive when a certain recording would nolonger
be available on Spotify.. no problem - *then* I could dig out
my original and make a copy of that.
It just doesn't make sense to digitize a 1100 LP collection
when the digitization of the mast majority of it is already
done by someone else.

Makes sense to put VHS onto a newer medium anyway. I have a
DVR recorder that can faciliate the output of a VHS player so
that I could record the content of the VHS onto the HDD and
then burn the file to DVD. But some commercial VHS movie tapes
output a scramble signal and can't be copied that way.
