Originally posted by nrjizer hmm... about sunlight, what if the records are in a cool room sitting on a shelf, and the morning sun comes through the window and shines on them for a while? will that eventually warp them? only the edges of the records end up getting direct sunlight tho

It will eventually warp them, yes. Sunlight (especially when it comes through a window) will heat up the record and make it slightly softer. Do your best to keep the records out of any sunlight.

They can last a lifetime if you take care of them

Oh, it should be ok. As long as they're free from heat and the sun and kept in a cool dry place, your records should be fine.

As to how to clean your needles, I think DJTJ will have a ready-made answer for you. I'm the wrong person to ask; I just blow on 'em!
