Well, the Sharivari (note different spelling :)) comment was really just a tossed-off joke to try & bring some (313) relevance to the post. I really think it would be great if everyone had access to something like this, though. I'd pay $45 to get 3 plates worth of my own tracks cut (figuring $25 for 3 plates plus a $20 cutting fee). It would bring some of the beneficial elements of the dubplate culture of London-area jungle to other areas that don't have a Nicky's Blackmarket or other cutting place around. Of course, there's also the not-so-nice aspects of the dubplate culture, too, like hearing a track that got recorded that afternoon but not being able to buy it for 9 months...
