    Just looked at their site. It's a pay $33 a month get a random record kind of thing? They have some records for sale directly but they're $40 an album $50 double LP + shipping I assume.

    I didn't realize so many people were interested in paying a monthly fee for random records if that's how vinyl me please works.

    I like what they're saying about quality. Curious to hear what some of these are like, sound, look, and feel.

    Not much of a "catalog" type service, though, is it? I only had a quick look, did a couple of quick searches. 0 for 3. Not a lot of stuff I'd buy, but saw a few I might be interested in. I'll stream first to confirm.

    I didn't read far enough into the membership to see whether it's a surprise every month, or whether you can shop for your monthly album.

    Not sure about the pricing. I suppose it's not out of line with other distributors.

    I guess this is where we are now? So used to paying high-ish prices for crap quality new records that we'd gladly pay a little more for really good quality records?

    I've got one or two of their classic rock releases I purchased from Discogs. I have no interest in the vast majority of their issues.

    Spending alomst $400/year for music that I'm not sure I will like doesn't work for me.

    From the aticle I clicked on a link that took me to Billboard's home page(never looked at it before) and found I have no interest in any of the first 20 articles. Man, I must be getting old.
    Yep, my name really is Bob.

    Kind of like the record of the minth club back in the 70's
