Yea. I just want to make sure you're getting into it for the right reasons. The best reason is for the rare stuff and the special editions with extras or versions of the films that are not/will not be on DVD. Do some research before buying any LD to insure that you’re getting an edition...

I'm jumping into this thread late... But, I got into vinyl in May with a Sumiko Pro-Ject 1.2 with an AT440ML cart and a Parasound PPH-100 preamp. I love it, and I'm going to continue collecting. There are some great used vinyl stores here in San Diego. I've found a lot of great...
