I guess I'm a little curious as to why one feels the need to increase
demand, hence increase the value -- It seems to me there is awful great
value (cost) in mechanical musical instruments.  I, for one, could never
even dream of buying anything other than a low-end player in need of
rebuilding.  It seems to me that it is already a "rich persons hobby".

I certainly don't mean to be insulting by saying this, and I'm open to
comments.  I'll readily admit it if I'm  wrong.
