"From Vinyl, To Tape, To You"

Pates Tapes is an online music project from Charles Pates comprised of hundreds of hours of mixtapes culled from vinyl and cassette. Just click and play.
I liked PatesTapes on Facebook and got a note from Charles himself not 10 minutes later thanking me and asking me to spread the word, which is a pretty awesome way to approach people who join a fan page for a passion project, I thought.
I told him that Metafilter is coming... :)

Wow, this is great. Thanks dhammond! I've been sampling streaming music services over the past little while. I had high hopes for 8Track, songza and a handful of others but this is by far the best.

I like this. Does anybody know how this works legally? Is it OK to stream digitized content from my own vinyl library?
Not trying to be a wet blanket here. I really do have a project in mind.

Well they could use a pop out player, plus ability to switch from track to track, but this incredible none the less.
