Sorry, I wasn't explicit.

My point was not a head to head comparison of an audiophile turntable to a 
cheap consumer turntable, but to point out the existence, and (presumably) 
market for inexpensive consumer turntables.  The implication is that the LP 
is not yet quite dead, even as a consumer medium, 20 years after the 
introduction of the CD.  Bodes well for film, IMHO.
