Fair point: if you want your vinyl readily accessible via Squeezeboxes/portable players, and if you have no money to buy the CDs, then digitizing the LPs is an option. Depends on how much you value your time.
It looks like your LP transfer process is significantly simpler than mine. If it only takes you 20 minutes per album (presumably on top of the recording time itself), then I take it that you don't do any sort of restoration work? I'm at the other end of the spectrum: having recorded the LP, I spend hours obsessing over cleaning it up, using mainly manual methods. I do have a wide range of automatic tools, but in most cases they don't get used.

Interestingly we have very similar setups. You have LP12/Naim 72/Hicap/M-Audio 2496. My setup is LP12/Naim 42.5/Catflap/M-Audio 2496. (The Catflap is a home-built PSU that replaced a Hicap). -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60096
