*Carefully remove the record from its jacket, handling it only by the edges and label, put it on the turntable, brush it with a record-cleaning brush, shoot it with a static-nullification gun, turn on the turntable and set it to the correct speed, lift the tonearm and (finally) drop the stylus on the edge of the record.

Can anyone really say that part of the reason for the resurgence of vinyl is the ritual to play a vinyl record?
My process is much simpler. Take record out it's jacket and drop it on the turn table. Lift the tonearm (auto started the player which is at 33 RPM) and drop the stylus at the start of the record.
For CDs? Eject the changer, find an empty slot or remove a CD to make an empty slot, hit the eject button again to have the player pull the changer in, select the right disk # and hit play while juggling the removed CD.
