cause most records are pressed with a counter-clockwise spiral.
reasoning for this is that the tone-arm is on the right.
reasoning for this is that most people are right-handed, and can operate both the tonearm and pitch with the right hand.

They only spin clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Down here in the southern hemisphere just like when you flush the toilet its the opposite.
