Not all vinyl is out on CDs, btw. Some of the more rare stuff isn't, or has
been replaced by frankly inferior recordings. In some cases the original
artists are long dead and there's not a big market to dig up the original
master and make a CD.
If you plan to make many of these, a good cartrige is a must. I bought
an Ortofon x5mc - it has twice the frequency response of a CD. Cost around
$200 if memory serves from garage a records (
www.garage-a-records.com)
but when I put one of my wife's immaculately kept records on it, the sound
was nothing short of incredible. Definately good stuff to source a CD with.
Yeah yeah, severely off topic, I know. :)
