I still  have a lot of Dad's old 78's.  Sometimes I work on trying to
transfer  them to more modern media.

Charles - Just in case you need it - I noted something while  listening to 
XM Radio, on one of the classic rock channels, classic  vinyl. They have a 
between-songs promo mentioning back when the music came  on records. In the 
background was the sound of the needle riding in the groove,  with an 
occasional pop, click, etc. They always let it run onto the first  10 or so seconds 
of the next song so that it sounds like it is being played on  vinyl. (PS, 
it isn't) So if you transfer all those old 78s to your digital  "Iplod" and 
the system you use "cleans them up" during the transfer, you  can always add 
the "vinyl" sound effect later. The real trick thing would be to  tie-into 
the Ipod's internal gyroscopic sensor, and make the misic playback  skip 
when you move it around too fast. 
 
Okay - It is Saturday, and I am turning off this computer to go out and  
work on a Corvair!  - Seth
