I gave up after a few minutes of trying unsuccessfully to load a track into the righthand turntable. Was also a bit disappointed that it wouldn't let me manually move the playhead to run the track back & forth. Unless I'm missing something, it's essentially just a media player with a funky interface.

BUT, I voted this up solely for the fact that this turned me on to the new Beastie Boys album, which I wouldn't otherwise have know was out. That's my afternoon ruined in a good way. Observe:

Well, it's kinda neat, but epic? No.

...why not? There's no Flash. I'd say that's pretty epic.

Because that sort of linguistic inflation is going to leave you at a loss for words when you encounter something that's ACTUALLY epic.
