Now there's a new vinyl-to-vinyl duplication machine (Australian product.)
Interesting in this day and age... -Alice

(Product blurb) The VRX 2000 is a real time acetate cutting machine,
allowing any audio source to be duplicated on to vinyl. Acetates allow
DJ's to play exclusive tracks that are not available in commercial
quantities, or to record original music from a mastered format on to one
off records.
Scratch DJ's can record breaks and loops from other sources and prepare
their set on to one record. In DJ "battles", this enables quicker
performance as the record will no longer need to be changed. Any audio
source such as CD, MP3, tape or mini disc can be easily duplicated.
