It's a USB Turntable, not high quality, its basically made so that you can convert your vinyl collection to mp3 for use on an mp3 player. I'm wondering if this will do the job for what i need it for (basically, sampling from vinyl). I understand that the needle is probably not the greatest and its belt driven (which ive heard is a bad thing for some reason) and its made of plastic. But i am not too concerned with quality as i like the gritty/grimy sample sound, and this $150 turntable seems like the best deal i can get opposed to buying a really nice one and then having to buy all the other crap you need to channel it into your PC. your thoughts, please!

If all you want to do is be able to sample vinyl, then this will work perfectly. The fact that it's belt driven doesn't matter. The most high quality and high fidelity turn audiophile turntables are belt driven - it's just bad for scratching.
