It depends on the customer :) - I agree with you both, especially on the shader, though I don't think you can find reliable CRT under $200 (maybe?) - I was luck

It depends on the customer :) - I agree with you both, especially on the shader, though I don't think you can find reliable CRT under $200 (maybe?) - I was lucky and found one for free dropped as garbage outside someones house. But it's rare to find such. The main thing is portability (move to another studio, etc. - just carry the device). The customer - lol, kids nowadays want to make old effects.
