I disagree. Copying an LP is as much an art form as a science. There are tons of little decisions that can impact an LP transfer. There are choices a person must make such as how much noise to get rid of (ie clicks, pops, crackle), what cartridge to use, to EQ or not, amplitude, frequency response, to use filters or not, etc etc. And that is just the "after transfer part" - never mind selecting the right LP, making sure you clean it right, etc etc. It's a tough job but if you love this hobby - it can be a lot of fun.
I just finished doing 1 album and it came out amazing. I spent about 1 week on it - about 3 hours per day for 8 days. While it's time consuming - the result - hearing music like you never have before - makes it well worth it.
