Yes, Viinyl Studio is that good, IMO. Of course, if you're opposed to getting a PC and opposed to getting a Mac, then finding purpose-built software is likely to be a challenge.

And the original complaint, which I think is that Audacity is too much of a pain, really stems from the fact that Audacity is not purpose-built for digitizing LPs.

Vinyl Studio is way easier than Audacity for importing LPs. http://www.alpinesoft.co.uk/

Why exactly do they assume that it's USPS discarding packages? My money is on Customs or whatever they call themselves now. They should re-run the experiment, this time shipping the packages from an origin somewhere in the US.

So a COBOL programmer is given a 5-year prognosis. He arranges with a hospital to be cryogenically preserved until a cure is found. On the appointed day, they prepare him, and he starts to feel a chill.

Next thing he knows, the chill is fading. The nurse uniforms look all futuristic. Injection devices are like on Star Trek, not piercing the skin. The hospital room decor is like in the 2001 movie.

He grabs a passing doctor and asks "So, did they cure my disease?" "No. The year is now 2999." "Huh? Why on earth did you thaw me out?" "Because you're the only COBOL programmer they could find, and Y3K is about to hit."/P
