It just seems like a giant waste of plastic to me, kinda like 3D printing.

17cm of pure ecstasy.

I will not buy one because I don't really go to shows anymore, but it seemed like a cool thing for recording live music to a one-off record or something like that. (n/t) from exodus.

If the discs are acetate like the other ones we were talking about, that's not plastic, it's plant based. However, they can also only be played back a few times before they're unlistenable.

There are plant based plastics. There’re still plastic. Petroleum isn’t a plant…but it was once.

And yeah, acetates vary in quantity but the most well made durable one will be about as good as a Soundsheet. Louder but way more fragile.

With home vinyl cutting though I’d think sound quality would be something you’d never be able to do well with. A good 80s tape deck or any modern standalone digital recorder with a brand name will do an amazing job and not produce a massive pile of “bad burns”.
