    That is tempting, for sure. But I cant pull the trigger on it.

    Do the songs sound better than a good version of the LP?

    I would really like to know the answer to this, as well. We bought it thinking it was pressed at 45 and would sound better. You know, richer, warmer, louder...we were disappointed to find out it isn't 45, and aren't sure we will open it...unless it sounds better. If it doesn't why listen to it.

    Are the longer songs on 33? I guess, the grooves get too narrow if you try to press over 4 minutes on to a seven inch at 45rpm.

    I emailed bags unlimited asking if they had anything that this box would fit in and they sent me a free sample of this..

    https://www.bagsunlimited.com/p-3637-7-reel-box-polyethyene-sleeves-with-2-flap.aspx

    It fits, but it's a real snug fit. Not the best sleeve if you plan on playing these records often, so I ordered a package of the next size up.. Hopefully it's a perfect fit.
