Product Description
You need a number of different audio devices to support your diverse music collection, but you don’t have the space to keep everything in one central place. For the ultimate audio hub, go for the TEAC LP-R550USB, a turntable that serves as an audio player, CD recorder, cassette player, computer interface, and AM/FM tuner Read More
The voting on Massdrop is useful for expressing interest in a product or class of products, but the site is primarily a curated group buy site. The problem with a product like this is not that is wasn't voted on, but that it's craptastic for a curated product. Good curation mean killer taste--and you can't dilute the selections with dross.
GetJeff1You are right, the "voting" is a joke here. Less than 10% of items are listed because of "voting".
The "voting" exists so as to drive traffic which in turn pumps up some flavor-of-the-month "e-commerce business metric". Then it can be morphed into a beautiful chart (demonstrating the "popularity" of the site), to be presented to investors.
Massdrop is now a "sort-of discounted" retailer pretending to be a group-buy site.
Back to the product. IF it's a high quality item, some of us may have some use with it. But it appears to be terrible. Just read the 1 star comments on Amazon.
You missed your chance to buy it before Sharper Image filed for bankruptcy, you had the flu the week they were on sale at Sears, and your internet was out the day these popped up on Woot! No need to be one of the losers vainly hoping to snag one at RadioShack on Black Friday--it's here at MassDrop...now.
