That was my first thought reading this: if these devices spread too far, all the magic will be gone. Dubplates are special not because they are one of a kind, they are special because they are one of a kind while also being so much more exclusive than mixtapes (which can be just as one of a kind, but aren't exclusive at all). Widely available home-cut vinyl might perhaps breed an awesome new culture, but if that happens it will definitely kill the incumbent.
