You get a hanpin clone, You get a hanpin clone, You get a hanpin clone; Errbady gets a hanpin clone.

It's just that the USB feature is more meant to be marketed on the same level as Crosleys. It's supposed to be a cool feature to make it sellable. So in the eyes of a consumer, it sounds like a good idea to be able to digitalize your collection for nostalgia/whatever.

The problem is that there's a lot of quality cutting as having a high quality built in preamp (basically what it is) is very hard to have at a low price point. There are USB turntables that aren't total crap, say the Pro-Ject Essential II Phono USB, but it certainly isn't worth a $100 increase from the list price of $300. So you end up with low end tables like this and this

Here is one that will be better than your Crosley, for very cheap

This is a way better TT for only $30 more: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000G3FNVM/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000G3FNVM&linkCode=as2&tag=cuup-20

It can rip vinyl to your computer over USB and uses a DJ style cartridge (the piece that houses the needle) which can be replaced with something like this: http://rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&bc1=000000&IS2=1&bg1=FFFFFF&fc1=000000&lc1=0000FF&t=cuup-20&o=1&p=8&l=as4&m=amazon&f=ifr&ref=ss_til&asins=B000GR1JCU

Yes, assuming you have a usb port that supports it on your computer, or alternatively, if you have an audio interface and a cable.

All you need is a turntable that either is usb, or if it isn't, any turntable and an interface with appropriate cables, FL Studio, and records.

Here's the cheap option that serves it's purpose well. I use it, and many others here do as well.

This one has worked wonders for me

Plugs right into a USB port and doesn't need an amplifier.

It's on sale. Everything you need.

It's popular because of its price, but it's not one of the best. I just don't think it has a place in a list of good turntables. A counterweight is not optional if you don't want to ruin your records over time.

The Pyle, which I didn't know, seems to be the best of the worse here.

Edit: if you want to feature a kinda-almost-decent turntable under $100, this Numark should do.

Another option could be this one new, it has a lot of the same features (no bluetooth, but built in pre-amp): https://www.amazon.com/Crosley-C100A-SI-Turntable-Adjustable-Counterweight/dp/B016OVYIK6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1480944646&sr=8-1&keywords=crosley+c100

or this one: https://www.amazon.com/Numark-TTUSB-Turntable-Interface-Output/dp/B000G3FNVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1511224432&sr=8-1&keywords=numark+ttusb+turntable&dpID=41FM-1DKCiL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

Now neither one will be amazing, but they're the right type of design and will be better money spent than the LP60 or that Sony.

The hardest price point to buy a new TT is in the $100 to $250 range. For $100, the best thing you can get is an AT-LP60 and the great redditors of r/vinyl will tell you not to get one, check the side bar, and buy vintage. That's good advice for budget spending; however, you could spend weeks searching craigslist or scouring pawn shops. My local craigslist tends to be lacking in selection and is overpriced. For $250, it's the AT-LP120 which is generally well received, but not very cheap.

Using Amazon, the Numark TTUSB or the Stanton T52B may be options that are a step up from the AT-LP60.
