No ripping CDs? Where does the music come from? The CD ripping part would be one of the best aspects of this type of box. Simple "rip any cd inserted and when done, open the drawer for another, repeat"
Sounds too 'niche' to make money off of. Price would have to be $200+ at least for parts. Maybe you've looked into the cost more, but it doesn't seem like a money maker to me.
