Digital JukeBox Concept on eBay
Hi All,
Over the last few years I have designed a fully digital JukeBox unit, here in Australia. I engineered the unit to please both operators and users, and made it simple to build. I used standard parts, PC and Coin-Mech... I managed to win some prizes, grants, etc and a Certificate for Innovation from the Australian Federal Government. and Best of All: The "Digital Heart" of this concept can be Retro-Fitted into ANY existing analog JukeBox. I have designed a 'through-glass' interface to make this possible. This means your OLD fleet of jukes can be converted into a NEW fleet at minimum cost , and you get to use the cabinet, amps, speakers and coin-mech ! Effectively you are transforming a written-down or unserviceable unit into a contemporary unit, and eliminating all the electro-mechanical problems. The purists may take offence, but there are some mechanical parts which you can't replace. I'd like some feedback on my work. Presently the concept is for auction on eBay, ending in 2 days time. Here's the url for my 'homepage' http://jukebox.customer.netspace.net.au |

Let me guess.
You are one of the guys who would put a brand new, fuel injected V8, overdrive transmission, and CD player with 16 inch speakers in a 57 Chevy... There is NOTHING on ANY jukebox that I can't replace, so don't use that excuse. "DeltaGamma JukeWares" wrote in message ...

Keith, NO indeed,
I'm only providing a service. There is a need for new jukes, the world population is rising, music is popular, etc etc. An amusement operator wears out his equipment. My product gives him incentive to keep using the cabinet, amps and speakers, and remove the carousel, etc to sell on to the purist/collector as spares, if he goes the retro-fit route. If he goes the replace-with-digital route then there's another collectible released into the market. In my view, I'm serving a good role for all. I actually have an incurable, untreatable spinal disease and created the concept to keep busy, now I need to convert it into $$$s for other purposes. "Keith Stelter" wrote in message ...

Keith,
Let me guess, you're one of those guys who goes around throwing gas on OMT and Bubblers and setting them on fire because they are not originals. As for the car people, some prefer an original Merc, while some prefer a chopped Merc. Who are you to tell people what they should like. This is why records have two holes in them, so you can play both sides. As for replacing any and all jukebox parts. it must be nice to be so rich that you can have any obscure part manufactured or any uavailable IC or transistor remade. I'll keep you in my fle and refer folks to you. Charlie |

If this "jukebox" downloads, stores, uses a hard drive or MP3 unit it
is illegal to place it in a business in the USA. Thanks to the performing rights organisations such as ASCAP and BMI, only the large jukebox manufacturers such as Rowe, Rockola, and Touchtunes are licensed to use this technology in commercial environments. In the USA if a person were to retrofit a jukebox with your kit and then put said jukebox in a business, ASCAP and/or BMI would sue you straight into bankruptcy or jail or both! |

I have a Wurlitzer OMT CD box in my collection. It was made in 2002, and no
vintage jukes were harmed or killed during it's production. BIG difference. Please don't send anyone to me. I like keeping my millions, along with my secret supply of all obsolete juke parts to myself. :^) wrote in message oups.com...
