You can play modern music on the Victrola.. You just get to hear them  
faster.

The Victrola is 78 RPM, kinda hard to  listen to "modern music".
But it entertained my great grand  parents, hence the "retention" of the 
device.
We had a Motorola HiFi too, spun my  "Meet the Beatles" on it in mono too.
 
I don't understand why so many people  still want vinyl, not much channel 
seperation or dynamic range  there.
And I'm also a trained audio engineer  and piano tuner, so no "tin ear" 
here.

Cool. I still have my parents' old Motorola HiFi. Mono...  Excellent for 
listening to early Beatles and Beach Boys records. I haven't  used it in 25 
years.

I have a Victrola, been in the  family for a very long time, and it looks 
and works fine.
Not for sale at any  price.

Does your HiFi include a Victrola? ;-)

- especially our app!  Serously, the audio is first  class.
