I've noticed that these are still being used and recommended. If so, you may care to heed a warning I received from Len Gregory:
The high frequency vibrations eventually destroy the adhesives used to fix diamond tips/shanks to cantilevers.
He told me just after that very thing had happened to me - the shank plus tip took off and were never seen again. Rather ironic that cleaner and (expensive cartridge) were from the same manufacturer.
I've since switched to using a simple brush and a record cleaning machine (the latter's expensive, but no more than a cartridge).
