more from the 'James Perrett school' of uk.rec.audio-ism:

It seems amazingly cheap for the amount of work involved

Depends how they are doing it. I'd imagine an enterprising engineer could
rig a jukebox-like machine to copy many albums overnight. Acceptable
crackle removal can be done automatically for all but the most damaged
albums, and single guy couldn't record several LPs at once on a PC with 5
or so soundcards. If they are connecting to CDDB and use standard templates
track lising takes seconds.

I do this kind of transfer work for people and, so far, I've found the
postal service reliable. However, even though things have been OK so
far, I don't like sending the only copy of anything through the post.

I have copied LP to CD many times for friends around here, with excellent
results from just consumer level equipment. I would deffinately send by
courier, which might even be cheaper for a good few heavy vinyl records.
